SKYEMONSTER...are you really that stupid???or is that just what you would like people to think?

Generalisations like that are absolute cr@p, and not only do you draw attention both to your personality, and YOUR ability to teach, but you bring the whole profession into shame!!!

I have had a student (male) who never went solo....he had about 60 hours and gave up! I was his fourth or fifth instructor....but the guy was 65 years old, had worries about his business, was keeping it secret from his wife, had trouble finding the money to fly, could not turn his neck to look behind him, etc etc....

This bloke was the most enthusiastic student I ever had, always was on time, always studied what I told him to, actioned the checklists properly etc (and he could drive pretty well)...but just could not grasp the concept of landing!!!

Some people can, and some people can not. All the excuses in the world will be thrown about, but blaming someone for being FEMALE???? come on!!!
