Two weeks as a Flight Instructor

I was a flight instructor for two weeks at the premiere leadership experience for Civil Air Patrol cadets, conducted annually at Maxwell AFB, the home of the USAF's Air University. 

Cadet Officer School is patterned after the USAF Squadron Officer School and is an academically challenging course for cadets 16 and older. 

My co-instructor, an AF Major, and I guided cadets through the Air Force approach to the psychology of leadership, problem solving techniques, effective writing, speaking, and group dynamics.

There are only about 100 slots available for COS each year and high interests makes the activity highly competitive.
