Some of us did; others had the mean'$ to bypass that. I came up through flight instructing, flying jumpers, turbo-pros, RJ's ect...But some kid with cash can just go from SE piston pusher to jet, and not because he has logged any real world experience. it was just an idea I tossed out, not that it would even be practical for our world.
