Pilots are no big problem to teach, if you can get past their EGO !!
I have a statement about teaching that I think might fit here.
The hardest student an instructor can get is :: someone over 55, that has either owned their own business or been in charge of one AND has a pilots license.
Take it for what it's worth but after a few years of instructing you will understand.
ENJOY !!! RED
just skimming through this and i couldnt agree more about the above satement. i had a bad day at work, and my boss is one of those arrogant guys (although not over 55) and pretty much impossible to deal with! i think that it doesnt matter whether or not you have fullscale experience or a degree in aerospace engineering, or anything for that matter. its the will to learn that makes a successful student.
