One has to wonder how an endeavor like learning to fly has been allowed to be dumb ed down to such a low level of proficiency?
Could it be the Darwin factor at work?
If mediocrity is going to be accepted in operating any machinery one would think that flying an airplane would be the last thing people would accept mediocrity in......then again when I think of the level of incompetence in those who regulate and license pilots I think I know the answer.
