We all learn bad habits. Think of the drivers on the road who start
making up their own "rules of the road" :-)) I try to fly with an
instructor at least once a quarter to make sure I'm not getting any
bad habits ingrained.

Scratching my head on that one, Roger. I spent more time in the past two
weeks with my instructor than my wife. No room for bad habits here. (One
good thing about Part 141 CFIs putting in their time for the commercial.
They're mean and ornery at a level they just can't hide, sitting there elbow
to elbow a few hours at a time. As messed up as it sounds, I'm pleased with
that arrangement.)
