Horrace utters:
I don't owe my life to someone else. Therefore if you trades-people would get something together and pressure the lazy AMA animal called Executive Council, then perhaps the AMA just might move to honor and provide for the PAID PROFESSIONAL FLIGHT INSTRUCTOR.
That is because, traditionally, flight instruction has been on the basis of an appreticeship, not an obligation. When I got started years ago, we went out to the field, helped, watched, flew and watched more. I don't mind helping someone, but it 's volunatry and ain't an entitlement program.
Maybe nowadays, a "PPFI" is appropriate...
