So if those who can do and those who can't flight instruct, what is it that you're doing?
Banner towing, fire patrol, fish spotting, or just buy a 150 and fly the wings off of it for the cost of auto gas. I am not bagging on your chosen profession at this point in your career but the question was "why do people dislike flight instructing". We don't like instructing since the pay is low hours are long and it is dangerous. Wouldn't you rather be doing something else?
