Thank you very much for the kind words. I can't believe I am going to get paid to do this. It is going to be fun, although I hear so many CFIs say that the first two months will be challenging. Vagabond, thanks for your kind words, I certainly look forward to getting to a left seat in the major one day. USMCFLYR, yes APC was and will be an integral part in my aviation career. I have learned a lot of wisdom in these Flight Training forums, so without a doubt I will recommend this website to my future students. Cub, thank you very much for your wisdom. I am generally an easy going, soft spoken individual. I should always remember that I am the boss and I should take charge if I am not comfortable. I truly hope to be a good/effective teacher. Having had no prior teaching experience, yes I do expect to have some problems at the beginning.
