Baildog, I hear you pal.
The uncle was never anything but kind to me whilst I was in his employment for 2 years. He cained me if I f___ed up but he got over it.
As for flying students being channled into GWA, I don't think so. Aside from the contractors insurance requirements, I still keep in contact with him ever few months and it doesn't sound like him. His pilots may take a young students on the odd empty flight to the desert to give them a taste of what a Navajo is like, but I don't think so.
IF he was such a bad operator, his contracting company would give him the flick and CASA would shut him down. In aviation there are always people that we don't get on with. Accept it and get on with your life and stop bagging an ecentric, but nice old man.
