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.[/QUOTE]

No I haven't taught a single civilian, but I HAVE taught hundreds of USN/USMC/Allied students and I am familiar with standards of training and expectations. I guess I felt that given my background, a few hours would all that would be needed, not 10 in the air and 10 on the ground. But again like has been stated by both of us...at this point, I don't know what I don't know.
