CFI – INSTRUMENT COURSE
AT YOUR OWN PACE OR ACCELERATED
Training Overview
CFI-Is are responsible for teaching pilots how to fly in instrument conditions as well as ensuring that instrument-rated pilots maintain their proficiency. As a CFI-I your privileges include: providing required training for Instrument Rating candidates, endorsing instrument rating candidates to take FAA oral and practical exams, and conducting instrument proficiency checks for Instrument-Rated Pilots.
The CFI-I course is an additional rating to your CFI certificate but can also be done as an initial certificate by adding additional days of training to the course. During the training for this course, you will fly all maneuvers from the right seat within the parameters set forth in the Practical Test Standards (PTS). You can complete this course at your own pace or Accelerated.
