I'm still here too...
I think (here we go

) that part of the problem is nobody until kabz has come up with a really good student problem (eg. I don't know what to do when etc.,.. how do I enjoy flying etc)that only an experienced instructor can answer really well. I still enjoy reading, but have also posted less. Occasionally I do just so I don't go insane on rainy days. Or even worse, perfectly fine days when nobody wants to fly! That hangar needs sweeping again, I'm sure of it...
I've started to enjoy the Private Flying forum a bit more too, Instructor's is a bit skinny and I can't think of anything to fill it with...
