That is a high price to pay for arrogance. :-)

With all due respect, arrogance is what happens with many who can't do
as they say? I, on the other hand, prefer the company of people who
live on the edge, so, if at times I seem haughty and aloof, call it
honest arrogance. I can do everything I claim and refuse to work for
that bunch of clowns who now have taken over the FAA and think they
know what they are doing.
My students walk in the door knowing I'm gonna be tough and demanding.
Even when I chomp big pieces out of their butts, they finish a lesson
knowing what is required and expected of them. The difference between
how I am sitting around having a bite to eat, and how I act in the
cockpit are seperate and distinct. The best part of that is, my
students KNOW what is expected of them and try hard to get an attaboy
from me.
I know I am effective in my individual approach and technique when
students tell others, "If you want to really learn something, fly with
this guy".
Flying is a dangerous business despite the PR hype and crapola and I
take it pretty serious. All you have to do is relax for a moment or
two and you are in the weeds with a bent airplane. One of ours was
bent yesterday with a female student who did what I had been saying
NOT to do and got into a porpoise on landing. The airplane is grounded
with some serious wrinkles. I haven't talked with her yet and am
debating what to say, if anything.
We all have our individual techniques and approaches to life. I prefer
the old style techniques and don't coddle anyone. Isn't that a big
surprise?
