I have no problem soloing a student and doing all their training in their own airplane. I just make sure that they know that, as students, they are on "my sign-off", and just because they own the airplane they are still under MY control. I say when they can fly and when they can't. As long as they understand that, we are fine. I might even put that in the signoff just to CYA.
I am just waiting now for the responses of how I am power hungry. :<) Kurt On Tue, 27 Jan 2009 03:33:56 -0000, Robert Worcester wrote > I'm looking to buy an Ercoupe, then saving for my lessons.
