Whenever I need a checkout I always have to fly with the same Instructor, because there is no CFI and the FIs have a 'no poaching' rule. This guy makes a habit of nudging the controls whenever he doesn't like something, which is annoying because inevitably I lose the feel - particularly during the flare.
I was taught to wait for the drop during the flare and pull back a little more each time, and it has always seen me ok, always landing on the mains with the stick all the way back. He however, likes an approach to be flown 5knts faster than I was ever used to. The result always seems to be a balloon and a long landing.
Any comments? And what about the 'no poaching' rule? It seems very silly and unbusinesslike to me.
