Keep it in aerospace, if we start talking about crappy professors anywhere on campus we'll be here for years. You go first Lets hope they don't read the forum. |

Not really a Professor but it kinda falls under the same lines - Any one know anything about Jeff Palmers stage checks?

Graziano is my favorite. Higgins, Foltz, Jensen, Ziedlik are all cool too.

Have you TAKEN a class with kim? ![]() God she was on my list for worst. doc jensen is the best teacher they have, but I like pete schumacher better, just because every day he's got another ditzy story about how he almost killed himself in an airplane one day. | |

Ok, help me pick a prof for CFI ground school. Lovelace, Skramstad, Bjerke, or Kitko?

I had Bjerke for 102. She was kinda boring, but the class wasn't too bad... I imagine it would be the same kind of thing for the CFI class.

I think I'm just gonna shoot for Bjerke for CFI. I had her for 102, as well. I didn't think she was bad at all, only a tad boring, like Erik mentioned.

From what I've heard, Lovelace is pretty popular among students for 414. Not going to comment on Kitko, he should just stick to Helicopters.

well, someone is still bitter that suncountry went under. He's got to share that wealth of FE knowledge he has. Is nybo still around? Nice guy to fly with. |

kitko for CFI groundschool, that is, if you actually want to learn something. palmer was my lead when i was instructing there. he's a really, really good guy. expect a stage check to be thorough but fair. he won't bust your chops if you're nervous. he, unlike many people there, has real world experience as well as part 61 training experience and you can expect some scenarios. tell him i say hi.

I learned from skrammy, but took CFI over the summer so... CFII was surprisingly hard, I figured the class would be a breeze but he made it hard really for no reason, I can't remember the guys name, younger guy, little on the tubby side, blonde hair... |

Bjerke 'hates' my guts, I think, I try not to take classes from her. I would top the list with best proffessors as K Foltz, Doc Jensen, Trapnell, Graziano, and oh yeah Mags Off Proff aka Mark Hastings. Actually I think most of the proffessors in aviation are great. The more the laid back and great teaching the better |

Kitko. You will learn something and you wont have a mountain of meaningless bookwork on top of you. That guy knows everything. He isn't one of those younger teachers (not saying names) that seems like they have something to prove and compete by seeing who can give out the most bookwork. I had him for the groundschool and final checkride.

Are you talking about groundschool? CFII was the easiest groundschool, easiest set of lessons, and easiest checkride I've ever taken. It helps when you are already instructing too.
