come fly

How you can say a cadet would be a better pilot than someone with experience is beyond me.
That's NOT what standard said, he said,

I've flown with plenty of useless former GA and Military pilots!
And he is right, there are plenty of them out there and I have seen my fair share, so much so, I would much rather a welltrained cadet in the right seat of my aircraft, than a GA pilot that slipped through the cracks. However, I have seen my fair share of the reverse situation. In the end if you are right for the job then it does not matter if you were a cadet or you came from GA.

I have examples of such if you care to know, but I won't put them here incase they are identified or i get identified. It would defeat the purpose of an alias.
