Why you may ask? Its based mostly on what trends I see in the industry. First let me say that its a good time to have your class four, it seems flight schools are snapping up anyone with a rating and a heartbeat. Some information came to me today so I decided to do a little research. Almost every instructor who's passed a resume this way in the last year has been hired. Scary. There's a reason I didn't hire a lot of those guys which makes me wonder who were the people that did. Desperate CFIs? Were there even interviews or assessments conducted on these guys? If there were, was it acceptable?
This is something that continually worries me, bad instructors continually seem to find employment. What I think worries me the most about this year is that it seems demand for giving training has outstripped any sort of worry about quality. If you're a new student, be prepared to spend a lot of time seeing your instructor shine up his new bars. Don't put up with anyone who tries to inflict "death by briefing" on you.
Hopefully I'm wrong.
