I've been flying since Feb. and I regularly fly with 4 different instructors. It works out well for all involved time wise. I always ask who's available on such and such day and time and I fly with who ever is available. The instructors time is valuable to them so I try very hard not to waste it. I would love to fly back to back to back burning gallons of fuel, but then that's not fair to the instructors. I always be sure not to be pushy or insistent and allow them to fly whatever they bring for themselves. I do expect the time spent during a lesson to be focused on my training. I think it's all about balance and patience. To many club instructors seem to get burned out and simply refuse to teach so they can fly as they wish and I don't blame them! As a newbie remember it's their time too. This hobby is meant to be fun and when the funs gone who's going to show up!! Thank's to Mano, Steve, Larry and John for teaching me to fly!!
