You're using the old rules (i.e., the TIF rules).

Look at the definition of an AEF in the MOSP.  Can you see any hard 
requirement for training?  An AEF is an AIR EXPERIENCE flight, and 
it is sufficient that the inductee should wish to EXPERIENCE FLIGHT.
If you have someone like that fronting up to their club, get 'em to
sign a temporary GFA membership form and give them an AEF - there's 
no requirement for them to acually try to learn to fly.

The previous MOSP defined TIFs in terms which included a requirement
that the inductee was actually interested in learning how to fly.  
That requirement no longer exists for AEFs.
