The more I read about how flying is taught by some of todays instructors the more I can understand the deplorable level of flying skills and lack of general understanding of what the hell is going on,, on the part of a whole lot of pilots today.
The dumbing down seems to be following the expected downward curve.
Dumb instructor teaches new instructor = dumber new instructor.
Then finally the truly dumb ones get into a position where they can instigate new methods into the curriculum = todays pilot pool.
Any attitude is taught and learned by looking at the attitude desired....period...
Once that attitude is learned and recognized that is what it looks like....period.
