Without offense to anyone, it seems that the training industry is becomming more and more geared toward overkill in the methods of teaching flying.( ie acronyms for everything you do except maybe park your car. ). For instance why does it take forever for an instructor and student to plan a simple VFR x/country, then after the poor student gets his/her first job the employer expects him/her to flight plan and leave in a matter of minutes?

Just wondering why it cannot be more simplified?

The hardest thing about flying is knowing when to say no.
