Default RE: Instructor/Student Relationship-Problems

I knew my parents wpuldn't just fork over 500+ dollars for me to start flying so i took a school program with the army reserves and made some cash during the winter. Spring break came and I bought myself an alpha. Now this wasn't an impulse thing. I had wanted to get an RC plane two summers before hand but wasn't legal working age so i just researched into RC. The club president was very kind enough to teach me to fly with his couple weeks off before he was deployed overseas, and i thanked him big time. I was always there on time (usually early, couldn't wait to fly) and was always earger for the useful info he would give me. I know how much time he took to teach me, and thats something i don't think i could have the nerves for.

bottom line... If he doesn't want to be there, or prepared to fly. why should you waste your time.
