Agreed.

Throughout my training there were three groups of people:

- those who had to work hard to learn and fly, particuarly in the more advanced stages of flying but they got it in the end
- those who seemed to sail through all their training, with no remedial work required.
- the two left feet brigade, who had real difficulty and did not seem to have any natural ability.

One chap I knew on my course had already completed an IR course and failed. He spent another 25hrs post failure (at another school) and still wasn't anywhere near passing his IRT. I think it was down to his ability and the instructor, but he seemed to have absolutely no spatial awareness. I was quite impressed with his determination though - he just would not give up.
