FLYING VFR IN IMC CONDITIONS
Jim,
A 70 hour student may have developed some basis to judge
their CFI, a 2 hour student has only those two hours.
And all the books he/she should have read. And all the newsgroups
postings. The King (argh!) videos. The hanging out at the field. Also,
any person should have a reasonably tuned BS detector.
At every airport, the "old timers" can tell you, after the
fact that they knew "George was going to kill somebody" but
the unwritten rule is to never speak badly about a fellow
aviator.
Then I hope the "old timers" feel really bad the first time and speak
up next time.
If there are any student pilots reading this, not all
instructors are any good at all.
Yep. Which is why one shouldn't be afraid to switch if a CFI doesn't
work out.
