seems that in general there is agreement to differ between the commercial flying school ( JAA FTO ) and the club or flying group (JAA RTF )...and the fact one should charge ( and be paid ) in the former and not ( at discretion ) in the latter...
well done those with that ethos...
i know many who have instructed for 40 years and more and never got a penny..and they never wanted to be paid...i still do the same but i expect to be paid in a commercial venture...thats the difference ....
i can understand those who say we should be paid...but it is our right to use discretion depending on the operation..and you know there is more personal satisfaction ( though it does'nt pay the bills ) instructing in the club or group where you give backto aviation what more likely than not...others gave to you...
so ..is there anything more to be said..??..
i do'nt think so...
