First Solo and Total Hours Flown

If someone said they took 75 hours for solo, I will start by first
asking questions about their instructor.


I'd start asking questions about their therapist. 75 hours is a waste of
everyone's time.

Some people just don't cut it. Easy to blame the instructor, but that's just
trying rationalize their own lack of ability.

Karl makes a stupid generalized statement. Instructors have more
influence over student success than you realize Karl.

It can't be a generalized statement because the "general" student solos
after vastly fewer hours. They should be aggressively weeded out way before
70 hr.

Again, not everyone is cut out to be a pilot. And a beginner, like you at
500 hrs, has little experience to back up your statements. How many students
have YOU soloed?
