He originally said:
"NTSB database is full of such accelerated instrument pilots."

He said that the "reports _scream_ of such pilots"

I quoted his original post. You're quoting his amended post after I
raised
the issue.

Okay...pardon.

Yet..."NTSB database is full of such accelerated instrument pilots." is
undoubtedly true.

Question: Who would YOU rather fly with?

1) A 10 days wonder?
2) A 30 day wonder
3) A 90 day wonder? (No, not OCS)
4) A six month "malingerer"?

:~)

Like I mentioned before, a cram session prepares you to take a test; it
doesn't teach (long term) competence, with the possible exception of those
who are doing it as a career at a school like FlightSafety.

POR - I got my IR in 1979; it took 37 days (Ground School from mid March to
mid April, and flying from April 8th to May 15th) and 51.5 hours. That was
while working a full time job (swing shifts).
