Not at all...I give instrument evals to about 25% of each MPD class, and the students who didn't go through Corpus are better instrument pilots hands down. Could be attributed to the lack of familiarity with the 11-217 and 202V3, or maybe the long BIT between Corpus and the FTU for non-LRF assigned studs. But even the Corpus grads going to the 50th/61st have more problems with basic instrument flying...
