To all the guys blasting the CFI for his rates.... why? What do you care? If he gets that, he gets that. And yes, he clearly knows how to market himself if he's getting rates like that, but he also must be a pretty good instructor because otherwise he wouldn't be able to sustain rates like that. Ever think of it that way?
I don't know the guy, I've never worked with the guy, and I imagine most folks on this board haven't either. But you're all basing your thoughts of his rates on one video. Seems a little silly and childish.
