Hmmmm, not sure I think thats really the right answer ethically, do you? Sure, the company keeps making dough, but isn't the real objective to train a person up? I tend to agree with Ummm...Lifting. A course (for PPL or whatever) is designed around the average bloggs or blogsette....how many hours of flying and ground school to achieve the qual...a few extra hours thrown in for remediation if they're a little slow in one area or another...but I think that as an instructor (military ab initio) you've got to set a certain standard of ethics for yourself as well as flight standards for your students. Me? I'd loathe myself if I just kept dragging it on and on with a hopeless case.

Where I do agree with you, MrWellington, is that SFB might really just be angry about being called SFB.
