What exactly is it that "GA" wants? When I was younger the old guard were bitching and whingeing about 200 hour instructors and how they should get some experience, how can you expect to teach when you have never done it etc etc. "back in my day this would never be allowed" etc

These days people with the experience are looking into being instructors and the GA crowd are complaining?? The vast majority of airline pilots have done it all from the bottom up, VFR/IFR Single Pilot/Multi Crew etc etc why is this a bad thing? Or is it that the people invested in GA just want something to complain about or have some sort of 'small man syndrome'?

In the USA you would be encouraged to be an instructor admittedly you could do that off your own back without an AOC and a small forest of paperwork.
