There used to be a flying school owner in Melbourne. When some kid came in with Mom/Dad for a TIF he would go outside and check out what sort of car Mummy or Daddy was driving. When the kid came back, he would approach the parental check-book holder and announce:
Ive just been talking to the instructor. Your kid's a natural!
I have exactly zero hours in a Kingair and so did Col Griffin.
Mick, you ain't so stupid, that's a great idea!
