Also Hertz give nothing to driving other than the loan of vehicles. They do not nurse potential drivers through fifty - a hundred hours of tuition.
Poor comparison
Rob P
A flying school has moral rights over the activities of its customers and ex-customers because it is a marginal business?
There is definitely a funny aviation-specific attitude at play. I don't view the place I learned to fly as having 'nursed me through'. I view them as a business that I elected to spend some £7-8k with when I had choices (both of other flying schools and other uses for the money). I don't feel that I owe them anything nor do I feel honour-bound to ensure that my future conduct presents no threat to their bottom line.
