And I wasn't implying that you thought you were. However, as you transition to the civ side of flying, there'll be a whole slew of things that weren't expected.
Now, in regards to the second to last statement. You don't know what to expect. Fair enough. Have you taught ANY civilian pilots whether it be ppl through a multi-comm/II course with the FAA PTS being the evaluation standard?
Hence part of the reason the guy wants a certain amount of time before he sets you loose.
