I don't waste my time with the free-loaders anymore. If they join join AMA, join my club, and pay the $150 per year to be a member of a fine club-owned private facility, then their flying training is free. Until they do, I will give three lessons, no TO and or landings and they are done.
Damn straight! I have taught more people to fly over the years than I can remember, but each and every one of them was an AMA member before we even had the first lesson. If someone is going to ***** about paying $58 a year for AMA membership, that someone is in the wrong hobby!
