An examiner can only work within the rules of the system. If somebody performs the tasks requested satisfactorily during the test they pass ....as simple as that. If you start playing god a failing people just because they lack experience then nobody will use you . It is no different to passing a 17 yr old on their driving test. They may behave beautifully when you are sitting next to them and then reckless with their mates on board. My worry is that i can remember aged 21 with 200 hrs being totally unprepared for situations that students put me in that i had never encountered before, but i did have a chief pilot to guide me re when to go and when not to ...then crop spraying i also had one to keep me out of trouble . A new ppl doesnt have anybody to tell him what to do . How many of you would sit in the back with a 50 hr ppl even in 20 kn ?
