Hey Mutt,

Man, too much to list! In my short 2 month stay as a CFI, I personally witnessed the chief CFI make students perform power on/off stalls and slow flight in the traffic pattern, land and take off on the ramp for "short field" operations, fly airplanes that were significantly overweight (by 400 lbs or 181 kg for you metric guys), I mean, it's a miracle that no one has been killed yet. The students are watching this Chief CFI do this stuff and they are starting to think that's the right way to fly. They're going to start trying to do the things they watch him do and get seriously injured or killed. Rabigh Wings Flight School has some serious problems to overcome before it can be a professional flight training platform. I strongly recommend that anyone interested in learning to fly in KSA wait until the new school in Riyadh opens or try somewhere else. Some of the students have been going to the Philipines for flight training.
