DirtyPierre,

You seemed to have missed my point altogether- I wasn't calling anyone dumb... I was showing a parallel - let me spell it out...


Blaming training (and instructors) as the main problem for idiots who make too many (bad, stupid) radio calls, is like blaming a persons lack of ability to think on bad teaching...

Regardless of how bad somebody has been instructed, a person who gets into an aeroplane with a private or commercial licence to fly him/her self around still has the opportunity to actually THINK for themselves about their radio calls.

...And I was trying to say that instructors seem to often get the blame for some dumbwit who makes 14 calls from 10 miles...like Desert Duck has explained...

...and the point that the majority of instructors teach their students well ...
