{EXCERPT} TIME The Air Force has finally decided what to do with its
barely-flown fleet of 106 training airplanes: Concede that it's
high-flying junk.......

It is my understanding that there is nothing wrong with the planes -- it
was the AF who screwed the pooch!

They took pilots who had scored poorly in pilot training, gone on to
being trash haulers, made them instructors who didn't understand the
airplane. You simply can't jump from big iron into a light aircraft
without understanding its capabilities and limitations. That is what the
AF did.
