Blimey, a fully developed ruck - on Private Flying? I thought I was in Wannabes for a minute . . .
Happy to report that at EGSG at least, 4 separate instructors were absolutely paranoid about sending me off into anything resembling 'iffy' wx. Not only that; both my first solo land-away and the QXC were preceded by dual trips, to make the solo a bit less intimidating.
No-one was allowed to solo until they'd passed air law, and I was well practised in 121.5 & QDMs before I was let out of the circuit on my own. In fact, so cautious were they that my final hour of solo nav was postponed
fourteen times due wx. On one occasion, (on an otherwise beautiful day) my QXC was scrubbed due to a TEMPO giving a 30% chance of CBs at one of my destination airfields.
Overly cautious? Perhaps, but I'm still here and all those 152s have still got 3 wheels.
TPR - WWW has his own, shall we say 'inimitable' style, but if there are one or two raised eyebrows at your story, it's probably because what you describe is so far removed from the experience of many people here. That alone should tell you all you need to know about your school.
