Cheeky bu**er!! - you seem to be forgetting that some females may enjoy all the unusual attitude stuff. Not all of us have pink headsets!!!!!
I haven't hugged my instructor yet. Patted him affectionately on the shoulder after he'd looked after my "very nervous" step daughter on a aeros trial lesson though - does that count??
Nearly grabbed his knee when going full flaps on final once or twice - just goes to prove I've been taught "eyes outside"!!.
And some of us give our male instructor a nice bottle of scotch when sent solo despite being all emotional at the time. I didn't cry - close - but I didn't...
