I am not an Instructor, I am a low hrs NPPL. So please excuse me for poking my neb in. I think Mad Jock is dead right, I also think that passing off a TL "customer" to any PPL willing to fly them for free is, or could be, a bad idea. Instructors are, I believe, trained to handle the situation of a panicking pax>>>? The average PPL is not? Is this scenario worth comment?
