What makes a good CFI?
Next semester at my college's Part 141 flight school, I will start flight training for the first time. Even though my priority is to become a great learner and student pilot, I do want to jump a little bit and discover what makes a good CFI.
I've heard many people claiming that young CFIs are often "selfish" and only have intentions of making it to the airlines ASAP, often neglecting the student. I'm not going to lie; I have the same intentions too, but I also want to genuinely care for my future student pilots, providing quality instruction and making a mark in the next generation of professional aviators (not trying to sound corny).
In other words, what should I pay attention to as a student pilot that I can bring with me when I become a CFI? What are things I should emulate from a good CFI?
