I don't think I was the only one who complained about him...there are just some
pilots who make poor instructors.
My father graduated from flight training in '42 but then came down with
rheumatic fever (heart condition). Instead of discharging him, they kept him
in...and when he recovered used him as an instructor for B-24s.
He wound up putting in 20 years and retired with 10,000+ hours. Actually they
grounded him after he had two heart attacks!! His attitude was that if he
couldn't fly, he wouldn't stay in.
Can't help but admire the guy...he then went to college and got a degree then a
teaching credential and taught high school for 15 year.
