Instructor Selection: while all the points that are well known regarding finding a good PPL instructor apply, what else should I know to find and evaluate a good IFR instructor? I already have on my list:
- Lots and lots of real world experience
- Instructing because they have a passion for turning out good pilots, not building time for next job
- Willingness to take advantage of any Non-convective IMC days so I can get some actual time.
- Willingness to make use of Sims
- Familiarity with the panel equipment (GPS and Autopilots) and ability to teach proper usage and how I'll be tested on same
