I'm no instructor, Just a student but I had a Female Instructor for my first 20 hrs and she was one of the best instructors I've met or flown with, I went solo on my 16th birthday with her help and it's a shame she left. I do know of another female pilot who is a very good pilot in general but FU*K what a user...

One of the 3 domains of learning is 'affective behaviour'...In simple terms (because you 2 knob-jockeys obviously need it) students will unconsiously copy the habits (good and bad) of there instructors. Bad example set..bad student response.
You may have heard this one too...."if the student fails the instructor fails!"

Yes, generalisations, but food for thought. Stop whinging and do your job. Sex is irrelevant (unless you're not getting any!)...maybe thats it?

Perhaps you should read, "Never Tell me Never".

When I first started to fly, I was lucky to meet this person when she was teaching aerobatics. I didn't have the pleasure of being her student but the word around the school was she was a meticulos instructor.

Perhaps you will re-think your first comment after you read her little story.

Perhaps you should look if you have expired your used by date as an instructor and move on.


Cheers.....& Keep Cool
