Pullpowa is not an instructor, however pullpowa was taught by some!
I am a charter pilet, having spent most of my time single pilot in the out back, multi engine piston. Let me assure you there is no subsitute for bush experience, nor is there a substitute for watching and correcting other people when they fly...teaching them must be hard work, particularly mungbeans like me...
In other forums there is always the old question of what is better. But there must be nothing more rewarding or potentially frightening than sending someone off solo!
The only criticism of the instructing caper is that the junior teach the more junior.....That not the fault of individual, but rather the system......
