RE: Instructors, who needs them
G'day Hugger. "Teaching keeps you learning." Yes, you may have it. Use it well.
There is another old saying that I was probably paraphrasing - "The best way to learn a subject is to teach it." Anon.
No one to teach at the field today though I did a bit of radio sorting for one bloke. Radios have now become so easy to use that the manuals have become impossible to read. Have you noticed this?
Back when a radio had four channels, some trims and perhaps, if it was the deluxe version, servo reversing, the manual was about three pages long. Now even a simple radio has complex mixing, assignable switches and suites of settings for particular types of models AND can store the settings for most of your hanger. And the manual is so large that you need a library to keep it in. There is always one thing missing though from these manuals - a proper index so that you can find things quickly.
