Unfazed

They have identified the need for an instructor at that salary. It might be that they would not have sufficient business to need one if they had to pay more and therefore the student would have to pay more. This is the same point I made before, but I'm not sure how I could make it any clearer

I am not just talking about CAC, of course. Friends working full-time at Bournemouth Flying Club are earning a living wage, from a combined salary and hourly pay in some cases (I only work there occasionally, so get paid by the hour), which is a distinct improvement on past times. I know clubs that pay less well are struggling to fill instructor vacancies, suggesting a lack of instructors.
