I've seen instructors of all varieties through a lot of years, and I'd want this guy leading up any level of command. His direct, candid, facts-of-life delivery is fantastic. Takes me back to the old days in Pensacola.
This instructor is awesome! I love his demeanor and how well prepared he is and organized in his thoughts. I taught this same stuff for the majority of the chunk of 10 years I was in, and I’ll tell you he is a top notch IP. It’s easy to see videos on here of blue angels and thunder chickens doing all sorts of stuff, but they are nothing as pilots until this guy teaches them this. The level of airmanship that is required to teach, brief, supervise, and then keep these two young pilots from tangling in the air is one of the most underestimated feats in aviation. Then he grades them, debriefs, and moves on to 2 more of these events every day. All in an environment that is heavily populated with other planes all doing similar yet different stuff. You have my respect sir, because not only are you doing all this, you are sharing this here for everybody else to see. Thank you!
This guy is an excellent instructor -- I have watched him on some other videos very recently but I do wish that he could correctly pronounce the word "peripheral" (i.e. as in "peripheral vision"). He says something that sounds like "PUR -IF - RE- RAIL". Not good.

Great lesson on formation techniques! Will be using these with my flying buds.
Awesome instruction! I ready for some Lancair Form.
Wonder if these 2 young men made it through primary and are now aviators
What is the arm patch for the Navy student? The one with the stormtrooper? That's freaking awesome. I can't find it via a google search.
Everything in moderation and anticipation.
