Prior to the difficulty dome regionals are having filling classes, you would not have been considered with busts.
The PTS is printed and available. If your decision making abilities are so lacking that you can't even decide for yourself when you aren't ready, and then subsequently fail... How can we trust your judgement on the condition of the aircraft during preflights, how can we trust you to remove yourself for illness or fatigue. You have already proven your aeronautical decision making ability is lacking....
To answer your question. Yes, it does make you more of a risk than the guy/gal with no busts getting the same licenses and ratings.

If this guy went the traditional civillian route, he's done anywhere from 3 to 7 checkrides in under 1000TT.
Furthermore, you have no idea WHY he failed those two rides. Did the examiner get upset because he couldn't tell exactly what type of class E airspace he was in, or did he try to takeoff without a clearance?
I'm actually quite surprised to see a pilot turn his back on a fellow airman with 2 busts. That sounds more like something that somebody in HR would arbitrarily decide.

The 1500 hour rule will be a welcome change. I'm sick if babysitting while they learn what they should have already learned before stepping into a jet. The passengers deserve better.
There is NO shortage of experienced pilots. There is a shortage of experienced pilots willing to work for what inexperienced will work for. Some call it SJS; from my seat.... They're right.

Busting means you don't even know what it is that you don't know....
Have you ever taken a checkride? You've never, ever made a mistake on a checkride (even one that was overlooked)?

I can't argue with that.

I think we have the same views on the 1500hr rule etc, but I absolutely cannot agree with your opinion on checkride busts.

Just what is your problem? You were giving me $hit months back about one pink slip in ten years of flying. Failing a checkride happens. No one likes it. Put the white scarf away and get over it. Even better yet, just go away.

10, 11, 15 years later, are you going to say they are "lacking in judgement" or "overestimation of one's abilities?" If you take into account all the factors that can be thrown into the mix, those have to be some of the most ridiculous statements I've ever read.....get off your horse.
