Tough flight instructor!!
I am as you say somewhere in the middle of my flight instructor course. I currently am training with another fellow that also wants his flight instructor rating. The flight instructor that we have teaching us is a very mature and very experienced (10,000 plus hours) and is also highly respected in the aviation community.
We begun our flight instructor course in the summer of 2007 and so far we have half of the flight time and most of the ground time put in due to his schedule always conducting flight tests for other students at other airports and going away.
He wants us to use the proper lexicon or wording when we teach and is tough on that, not alot of praise whether we do good work and the other fellow pilot that is doing the same course with me is always unprepared and not ready for the most part for our lessons.
Any suggestions?
thanks
