It most certainly does work this way. If the student doesn't graduate a

I wasn't thinking of the graduation. After the pilot graduates, he
flies. A
good pilot is someone who flies well even years after doing what is
necessary
to get a license. The same applies to drivers of cars, doctors, lawyers,
and
so on. It's one thing to pass a test; it's another to stay competent
and/or
perhaps improve over long periods. Instructors have no control over
that.
Anything you say Anthony. I've reached that point where it's time to say
I'm not interested in changing your opinion.

Oh, don't stop now, you just got him wound up.


If I do that I'll be going against my own Usenet philosophy (new this
year :-)
If someone engages me respectfully I'll return the respect. If any
difference can't be settled after several exchanges, and if I believe
I'm correct as is the case here, I'll disengage and allow my "adversary"
their opinion without slamming them.
Don't know how long this will last, but I'm giving it a shot anyway :-))
