TIPS FOR FRESH JUNIOR 3's

GENERICALLY;
1) Always remember that you work for the student, take pride in the fact that when finished they will represent you in the aviation world, help them whatever way you can.

2) Like your training, 90% of how well you do as an instructor is prior preparation. Never skip on the briefs, keep your own knowledge/skill up there and keep it simple!

3) No two students are the same

4) Most importantly emphasize safety and also HAVE FUN.

FINDING A JOB;
1) try Air force cadets or scouts or airleague. It may be volunteer work but hey, its how I made my start...

2) once you've cracked your senior apply for a larger mob like FTA, CSWAFC, MFTA etc, I guarantee they will take you on with some experience and a good attitude

3) If you stay in it for the long haul. it can be very rewarding and lead to future doors opening
