Thank you for the insight! I appreciate your replies. Also @Greg Bockelman @Witmo where do you go for training? @Salty thanks I’ll reach out to your location this week.

Good Afternoon, I’m interested in adding a glider rating to my commercial ticket and wanted to obtain some insight from those who may have added on a glider rating to their record. 1. Which Glider school location did you attend? 2. Did you earn a private or commercial glider add on? 3. Does...

Good afternoon, I’m in the market to find a flight program that offers cfi-initial training. I’m running into the issue that some schools do not have any 2 year instructors available. Looking for a flight school or part 61 independent instruction. I’m willing to travel anywhere in the US for...

Good Evening, I am looking for flight schools or independent cfi that offers cfi initial training? A lot of local places do not have the 2 year cfi available to teach cfi training. I currently live in Georgia but I am open to other states to start and complete my cfi initial training . In the...

Good Evening, I recently passed my commercial checkride and I’m looking to begin my Cfi training here within the next two weeks. What are some of the pointers or tips from your experience as a cfi you wish you would have known from the start of your cfi training to make you a better pilot?

I appreciate it! Thank you so much! Just wanted to make sure I didn’t need to make any additional flights prior to checkride. Thank you

5 hours in night VFR conditions with 10 takeoffs and 10 landings (with each landing involving a flight in the traffic pattern) at an airport with an operating control tower. I doesn’t say takeoff/landing have to be in the same flight. It states the landings involved in the traffic pattern...

Asking strictly off of solo time! Do the 10tko/landings have to be all in the same flight or if I’m training at a towered airport and I’ve made SOLO 10 night landings in the pattern after my private license over time SOLO does that count towards my 10 night landings? Thanks

Thanks for your reply. A buddy of mine and were talking about the 50 hours of simulator. We were honestly trying to figure out what could you possibly do in 50 hours of sim towards commercial.

Sorry, can you truly learn maneuvers in a redbird. I’m honestly trying to figure out what are you doing (up to 50 hours) in a redbird simulator or just a simulator for commercial training.

Following this post, Jwn is right up the road from me.

Once again, thank you all for your feedback!

This is good to know. Thank you!

I appreciate you all for posting and giving your honest opinions.
