Fast forward a couple of months, and the pilot is flying his first solo
x/c into an unfamiliar airport, and he has a rough landing resulting in
a prop strike. The airplane is recovered, repaired and the returned to
service. The pilot goes on to complete his PVT certificate. A couple
months go by. The pilot then receives a threatening demand letter from
the FBO's insurer asking him to repay the $10000+ repair bill.

A threatening letter is very different from a successful lawsuit.
