What I can't figure out is why NAFI (EAA's Flight Instructor "Association")
associates itself with Flying. NAFI members recieve Flying as a "Membership
Benefit" as well as a NAFI publication called Mentor that also falls short
of being useful. When was the last time that you read an honest article on
flight training in Flying other than full motion sim training for the latest
and greatest biz jet? If NAFI really wanted to provide instructors with a
good publication, it would create it's own version of AOPA's Flight Training
magazine.

Is it me, or has Flying become among the worst GA magazines to read?
Why does it seem that all I read about are trip reports from Mac and
Dick Collins that, personally, offer little educational value? Each
of these guys write serveral articles per issue. Are they that hard
up for good writers, or do these guys just like to write everything
themselves? When I open AOPA Pilot, Flight Training, Private Pilot,
Plane and Pilot, etc. I find a good balance of education, reviews, and
good tidbits. All I feel I've gained from reading Flying is knowing
every detail of what's in the Avionics stack of Mac's Barron and
Dick's Cessna P210.
