Sorry, but that is blaming an instructor for following poor standards. We all want instructors to go beyond the minimums, but if an instructor teaches standards to the letter and it's not good enough, the fault lies with whichever agency wrote those standards.
Yeah. MikeFererra used to make this point all the time too.
If the instructor has any wiggle room (his words) then they will use it and you can't blame the bad instructors for failing to follow the "intent" of standards.
But I do.
Either we're pro's or we're idiots who robotically follow rules.
Do you robotically follow rules, Walter?
Niether do I.
Why would our respective agency affiliations determine which one of us thinks and which one does not?
