Default Private pilot license

The REASON I decided to stop is that I do take responsibility for my own
actions, and realized I could get the PPL but only be a marginally
competent pilot. Maybe
some people can maintain proficiency by flying 1-2x per month. I didn't
think I could, and would not subject any passengers to unnecessary risk.
I still think it was the right thing to do.


If you take responsibility for your own actions, then why don't you take
responsibility for your training as well? If you didn't like the
instructor(s) you found at FRG, then look for another one. If you think
you'll be only "marginally" competent, then take more training. Placing the
"blame" on the handful of instructors you encountered is not indicative a
person who takes charge. Maybe you're not PIC material and I applaud your
realization and decision to stay on the ground. Hopefully one day you are
able to grasp the fact that as a pilot, you are as safe as you want to be
and go for your PPL--and I'm not saying that facetiously.

It's obvious that you are not a total idiot but you put quite a bit of time
and energy into all these negative posts. The effect on this "community" is
similar. It's an unfortunate way to spend your day but of course you're in
command of your own time are free to do so.
