Flying Chick,
When I originally booked my instructor course I must confess that it was primarily with the intention of hour building. However I soon found that I really enjoyed it and now consider it to be my profession.
I have gone on to include the IMC teaching ticket and multi teaching ticket (although I hav'nt used either yet!).
I am sure many of us here if we were honest would admit to originally 'doing it for the hours'.
One last note, are there too many people becoming instructors now though? Just a thought.
Cheers
JWF
