Take a freight dog over CFI any day of the week. Fundamental difference between the 2, freight dogs watch and figure the easiest/best way to operate, CFIs want to show you how good they can do it. The best is watching a CFI dive at 2000 FPM to get to the platform altitude behind a heavy on approach.
