Good pilots/Bad pilots

Bit of a strange question this, but hear me out...


I know all pilots go through a LOT of training. I know that they have check pilots. I know that their is a culture of checking each other's work whilst in flight. I know there are six monthly sim checks. But...


Are there still incompetent pilots out there?


For instance, everyone driving has passed a driving test. But some people shouldn't be on the roads. I know driving is a lot simpler and easier to pass the test, but the theory remains that some people will have the ability to pass tests but not truly have the aptitude.


I'd be curious to know if this is something anyone has any views on...
