Default $120 Shirt Tail

He was told on more than one occasion that I would cut his shirt, yet he wore a $120 shirt to his first solo. I gladly hacked that thing

Did he fight you on it? Maybe that is a recreational shirt for that guy.

At least you made good on your threats. That is what good CFIs do.

Same here. That's way too much for a shirt. Maybe his wife bought it for him?...

I never had my shirt tail cut, but I can't legally solo the airliner I currently fly, so maybe I don't qualify.

Mine was never cut by my cfi and the school I taught at wouldn't allow it for liability reasons. It's a shame, it is an awesome day in an aviators life.
