What the CFI could possibly have found to fill 10 minutes with, I have no
idea.


Deep and frequent repetition of how poorly the Cessna 172 climbs in a
downdraft, mostly. Stories about how pilots panic in a downdraft and
stall the airplane. Backup stories from another CFI standing next to
him, who took time to recite the textbook methods for approching the
lee side of a ridge. Retorts for pretty much anything I could think
of; I spent 10 minutes not completing any sentences.

That kind of thing.
