FUN.LEVER.FORWARD
Totally agree, once had a trainee order a USAF flight to reduce speed to 265 Kts to which he replied, ever so politely, that if he did so his aircraft would fall out of the sky. She, the trainee, had absolutely no idea as to the envelope of flight, airspeed, etc, and this after having undergone the full ATC college training. On unit training sorted out many misconceptions, but not all.
The trainee later went back to the college as an instructor!!!!!
Say no more.
Cheers
