Let's call him Peter. I was his fifth flight instructor since he started learning to fly nine months earlier. He was attempting to obtain his private license within the 365-day period allowed for registered aliens living in the U.S. When we met, my first question was, "How did you go through so many instructors?" Some of his explanations made sense. One got a right-seat job with a small airline, another quit so he could take care of a relative, and so on. The bottom line was, he was in a hurry, and wanted to fly more often than most instructors could handle.
