At last we have finally got it out of WWW after god knows how many attempts of asking that he has NEVER flown in the US....what a surprise..ho hum..!
I have even challenged him to stop making sweeping comments about US flight schools and name and shame the bad ones, he seems to at last have named....err....one!. In fact one well known US flight school bailed out students when a UK school went bust. Did any UK schools come forward with a similar offer we werent aware of?
WWW is under the impression that every person who gets into an aircraft wants to become an FI and finally sit in the right hand seat with the big boys! Errrr.....nope...wrong again WWW - some of us do it because we actually enjoy flying so moaning about the fact that their wont be any students when we are FIs because they are all in the US is b@ll@cks!
If a guy only flys 6 hours a year, as you state, then he is hardly worth bothering about in your great 'fund the FIs debate' - not to mention not current
