Hey we are just trying to get him a better chance of learning to fly, I agree not all clubs are created equal but most of them have that one guy that loves to help the newbie! After he learns it will be up to him if he wishes to stay in the club, but the odds are so much better for him if he does find a club for his learning period! Its also good to learn from someone that can help him with the safety part of the hobby, We all know there are allot of does and donts that go with this hobby!
