here's one way you could solve the problem. This industry tolerates an awful lot of people who aren't really very good at their jobs. Some TRE's and flight schools are very reluctant to fail people for poor performance. What should happen is that the crap ones fail, get some retraining, and if they fail again they are out. What actually happens is that everyone turns a blind eye! If the standard was raised and a few people moved on, the best of the newbies would have jobs to move into. At the moment there will be some exceptional new pilots out there who are totally unable to commence their careers and that is bad for the industry.
