Hope he didn't solo you or ever sign your logbook. But if
all he did was let you fly while he was in the plane, that
is legal.

Anyone can sign anybodys log book. Some people have passengers sign just so
they can look back to see who they have flown with. What's the big deal? I
see nothing to prevent a non CFI from instructing, indicating so in the
students log book and signing it. The times don't count toward any
instruction required for ratings but other than that what's the problem?

| Robert,

| My husband taught me to fly his Luscombe, and he's not a
CFI. It wasn't a

| Other folks have mentioned insurance as an issue. That
wasn't a big deal
| with us, either. Buy the airplane that you, as the CFI,
have the most
| time-in-type in. That will keep your costs down. Try

high costs come

commercial use.

| Have fun!
