I don't. But what is standard? Are you assuming a person can't improve?

I know very good, conscientious pilots that have busted check rides, myself included. I've flown with check airman who have told me to approach the wrong runway, given me wrong DH info, and have wanted to depart during incoming thunderstorms. Are they above standard? Check ride pressure, where you are being evaluated, is not the same pressure as flying, in even in emergency.

I don't know this person's whole story, but people can improve and I do know the mentality in aviation of the "zero sum game" where others think they can reduce competition through badgering and authoritative opinion. In every other field, failure is accepted as a learning and growing process. How many times did Edison fail? Safety is not the issue, because a PROPERLY run training dept. will weed out those unsafe. Also the 1500 hr reqmt. helps a lot with that.
