I'm from planet realist, clearly you are not from around here. Anyway to answer your question, firstly I'd say that PPL training isn't really an industry - by using that word you are again linking it to commercial aviation, although I suppose you could say anything is an "industry" if you wanted to spin it. So, well there's aviation of course! There are also many, many other such things. Car driving for instance. Anyone with a basic licence can teach someone to drive. In my day you just had to have passed your test (I helped teach my sister to drive when I was 18) although now you have to be 21 I think. Then there is skiing, sub-aqua, horse riding, and... well so many you'll get bored if I recite them all. These are all things where mistakes can seriously injure or kill.
