WWW says:
I can understand that may be his perception but if so it must be wrong.
I don't believe everything I read, and I know great instructors whom I have a lot of respect for. I have also come across students who exagerate. But that doesn't mean its always so...
I think its OK to question the facts, but how can you be so sure that what Phoenix says "must be wrong"?!? Seems like you have the same bias you accuse others of, only in reverse?
On the case in point, I like everyone else have been shocked at the story - and I hope to God its not true... but if it is, then maybe it should be brought to the attention of appropriate authorities, and now that Phoenix has been able to confirm that what he says happened shouldn't happen, then he might be prepared to do so.
This forum cannot be judge or jury for EITHER side of the argument... in that respect I agree with WWW that there can sometimes be a bit too much bias in the "poor students" direction. We just all need to be calm balanced and intelligent people!
Happy flying one and all
