"The up side for the CAA when they cut student loans, is that if 80% of training crashes were from student loan providers, it could effectively cut the accident rate in the area by 80%, And they would look like they are doing there job."

First of all the CAA has nothing to do with the student loan scheme.

Secondly, to suggest that accidents might go down by 80% by cutting student loans is simply ridiculous. The only way that is reducing the accident rate is by reducing the number of students in the sky and doesn't address the causes of accidents which is far more complicated then just who is and isn't flying on a student loan.

Oh, and by the way, it's spelt SYLLABUS.
