Default Right Rudder


Oh my goodness....Right Rudder? Why in the world would any pilot need
right rudder


Huh?

Such a frustration for CFI's and I wonder how many of the current crop
of CFI's have a handle on it or even understand what they are trying
to teach?


The FAA performs initial CFI checkrides directly so if a CFI candidate
doesn't have a handle on it, it should be immediately apparent to the
FAA itself.

What with the zero-flap forward slip to landing demonstrations and
cross-control stall discussion, not to mention all of the aerodynamic
questions on the CFI written alone, I don't think anybody will find that
the CFIs don't understand what they're trying to teach.
