Hey there all!

I got my CFII addition yesterday, yay me!

And its a wonderful feeling as I sit here, looking at the 1200' ceiling ov overcast and to know that "Yes, even now, I can still give a lesson!"

Whoo Hoo!

Bravo Ben! They say the IFR rating is the hardest checkride--is the CFII even more challenging?

Thanks!

I wouldnt say that it is more challenging. It is different because the emphasis isnt just on if you know what you are doing, its if you can explain what you are doing to a student.

The checkride felt more like a freindly flight between a pilot with much more experiance than me, him seeing how I do things and giving me feedback and giving pointers on how to do it better or how to demonstrate somthing to the student in a more effeciant way.
