I need to do something to say thanks to my CFI, but I can't think of any

I'm not a flight instructor, but have been in the aviation biz since
the early 80's.

It was/is surprising to me how few sincere "thank you's" get handed
out in this business.

A "you really did an excellent job, thank you" and a pat on the back
goes a long way in General Aviation, trust me.
