So your point is to take the least expereinced pilot and make him an Instructor so he can learn? is that not an OXMORON?
No, it's not an oxymoron. The best instructors I have known confess that they learned an awful lot about flying through teaching others! That's certainly the case for me - students ask the darndest questions, and you have to provide an answer that completes their knowledge; in so doing, you improve your own competence.
