I was at a FBO that I used to frequently fly from....(no longer) I overheard a couple of flight instructors talking about how they once logged false hours in their books....this made me feel uneasy. It seemed that As I was there all the time and I have seen alot of crazy stuff, that it was ok for them to say this in front of me...like..ah he won't say nothing....(Mind you, these guys are back woods country guys)which at the moment I didn't. I just kind of played along. But It worried me that they are teaching new students and they really don't have the experience they claim to have....besides that, the FBO's rental aircraft are totally unsafe and they skimp on maintenance all the time....I left there never to return but I feel a bit worried for future students who may seek them for learning to fly....should I call the FSDO? FEDs? should I not get involved? I could possibly prove the aircraft are crappy but what about the instructors?....It just seems very wrong....I previosly heard someone saying this about the instructors but I wasn't present at the time so I couldn't say anything. So I disreguarded. But when I heard this coming from their mouths....my stomach got butterflies....what would you do?
