RE: Am I Ready to be called INSTRUCTOR?
All I am saying is you cannot know what a student will do in reaction to a sudden gust of wind at 5 feet based on what they do at 50 feet. They may seem able to compensate easly at 50 feet, yet panic at 5 feet. I have seen normally calm competent students, out of nowhere, panic under seemingly simple circumstances. To say that you are at fault for allowing this is a little extreme.
