Yes, strange how so many seem oblivious to the fact that there will be god awful pilots out there who were fully funded and P2F Pilots who are superb and anything in between....
Also strange how many see P2F as "a cancer" for those already IN aviation, but not as one that also affects those who feel it is their only route in. Not defending it, but it ain't nice to know that you're into "pay up, or forget you ever had a licence" either...
