I know what he meant Bruce, it just sounds like sour g.s to me.
Firstly, I find it hard to believe his reasons for not wanting to learn
in the US is that the standards are too low, and secondly, I believe the
last thing on his mind is the welfare of Australian flying schools.
I'm sure if there's a need within Australia for more foreign pilots to
train on their shores, they'll move the goal posts to allow this.
