It is reassuring to see at least two posters praising Neil as instructor, he is my instructor and I am very happy with his method and personality.
and a third.. not flow with Neil that much but GA at Liverpool is quite close-knit and know Neil's instruction, while many instructors are waiting for that hop to the airlines and do a good job there are others of us that are more carer instructors that love to see students progress, strive to give the best possible training and always try to go above and beyond in anyway we can. IMHO Neil for sure falls in the latter and it's reflected in the quality of those that have done their PPL with him
