I entirely agree with all the above posts. I had a bad time when I was learning to fly, though for completely different reasons. I stuck it because I didn't know how things were meant to be, thought maybe I was being over sensitive, and didn't want the upheaval of going to a new place. I know now I should have left. Flying is meant to be fun, and you're the one who's paying. There are lots of good instructors in the world. If you want to try to change things first then do, but if it's everyone treating you that way then I think you'll be fighting a losing battle and should go elsewhere. Good luck. And remember, there's nothing wrong with being young. Ageism has no place in aviation.
