How on Earth was a 'student solo' allowed to leg it, flee the scene and neck a couple before anyone felt their collar? I'd have thought the school (in their proper supervisory role) might have wanted to secure them by the collar to prevent them scarpering.

And if the reaction to a serious air accident is to leg it and neck a couple, should this student really be allowed to continue to PPL? It is not convincing evidence of 'the right stuff', after all.
