You know BPA, I like to think that I can fly, and I'm starting to get the hang of teaching those aspects of flying that I'm qualified to teach.

I think you've described two things there that I have seldom, possibly never, seen briefed. It took about 10 seconds of reading your post to decide that you've just shared something really really valuable that will now be a permanent fixture in my flying and teaching.

Thank you very much.
