"lets not let those silly young people be instructors, lets only allow us terribly experienced, competent and lets face it, awfully clever people to be instructors."
if that is how you have interpreted what has been written here then perhaps you need to read it again.

To continue the driving analogy - how many drivers who have just passed their tests are allowed to gain experience as driving instructors?

There will always be good, young helicopter instructors just as there will always be bad, experienced ones but lets not justify using low time instructors because it is the right thing to do when we know it is because it is the cheap thing to do.
