Would any other CFI accept this potential interaction in their employment relationship? I am the one who signs the student's book.
Anyone else come up against this?

Would you care to provide any reply or reference here that I can later share to this fellow?

Teacher

Thank you all for your considerate replies.

Yes, my students can generally handle 'extra' radio calls, and typically scan well for traffic. Thanks. I have never had a designee or inspector note my applicants as deficient in scanning.

What I was more interested in was the reaction of other CFIs to the concept that someone who hadn't flown with their student felt they had more ability to interpret what any particular student could 'handle' ....
and did they view this as an appropriate topic for public rebuke
by an employer?
Had anyone ever observed this on any occasion, or how would they react if they were confronted this way?

Thank you.
