Haven't instructed for decades. Thought about getting back into it. Nope. The product turned out by the colleges today is, for the most part...CRAP. No airmanship. No common sense. The willingness to crawl over their peers to be the first lemming over the cliff to a bloody ramp job. Self entitled spoilt brats.
