Switch now. Part 61 lists what has to be covered by the instructor signing you off before you can solo, and if you're on lesson seven, switching now still gives your next instructor time to get it all covered without having to redo lessons. No point in staying with your current CFI. Switch today. And when he asks why your switching tell him. And tell the ACI or Chief too. Maybe then other guys won't have to be subjected to prick$ like him.
