Oh, noooo..... Who wants to bet that the sim jockey is going to make
Bertie regret writing that? :

I would submit that getting the training required to earn a license
makes you safer than somebody who bought an airplane and took it flying.


Yep.

But, who knows. He might have had hundreds of hours of endorsed solo
flight and simply never taken the checkride, and flown hundreds of
unregulated hours snce then.

Exactly. in general, i agree wiht the sentiment, but to dismiss it as the
cause of the accident, and backpedal though they may, that is exactly what
they were doing, is to be as stupid as they suppose this guy to be.
