Default RE: What Are "Minimum" Flying Skills?

I think these posts express my views on this subject very well 5/7/8/13/17/24/27.
Why do you want something like this to become official rules ???
Most often when someone starts pushing something like this there is a reason other than "safety" behind it.
If you are having a problem with an individual then address the problem with the individual or individuals.

It is most often the people with the greatest skills that are actually the most dangerous to be around.
The guy hovering the giant plane right in the middle of the runway scares me a lot more than the guy that can only fly the left pattern, at least if the left pattern guy gets in trouble he might have time to warn everyone else, where the hot shot hovering guy will have no time to even get himself out of the way.

If you just have to have something official I agree with the post carrellh made, make it apply to everyone and pray that by some fluke you don't screw up when its your turn.
