While much of the bogus additional currency rules are blamed on
insurance, most of it is stuff that the flight schools make up for
their own benefit.

I have no reason to doubt what you are saying, but I cannot see
the benefit for the flight school of arbitrarily restricting the
number of people who can fly their aircraft; an aircraft that stays
on the ground does not do much good to their bottom line unless I am
missing something.

For the record I didn't say any of the above. But while I am here.....FBOs
and flight schools make all kinds of rules that make no sense. Most would
not survive in a real business environment. They seem to think rules solve
problems and from what I can tell, most of the time they have no clue and
could care less what the goofey rules might do to their business.
