thanks for posting this bit of information:
sadly, I'll bet there are a few less than mediocre, that's right, less than mediocre pilots flying around.
In my history as a pilot I have seen people fly without licenses because they couldn't read enough to pass the written exam!
I know someone who flew on an IFR clearance without an instrument rating (no cfii either).
talk about FLYING 101.
and yes, I'll bet these folks end up flying in the nether regions of the aviation third world.
It is quite easy to fake a log book, and do in 200hours what one needs 1500 hours plus to do.
