How very interesting.... Here's the current posting:
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Certification is required to teach FAA pilot ground and aircraft simulator courses such as:
o Pilot Ground Courses:
Private Pilot Ground – Basic Ground Instructor (BGI) or Certified Flight Instructor; or
Instrument Pilot Ground – Instrument Ground Instructor (IGI) or Certified Flight Instructor – Instrument; or
Commercial Pilot Ground – Advanced Ground Instructor (AGI) or Certified Flight Instructor;
Flight Instructor Ground – Advanced Ground Instructor or Certified Flight Instructor
o Simulator Courses: AES 1710 – Certified Flight Instructor; AES 2710 – Certified Flight Instructor – Instrument; AES 3710 – Certified Flight Instructor with Commercial Multi-engine
o UAS/UAV Courses – FAA Part 107
On the other hand, I definitely satisfy the required & preferred requirements for the Aerospace option, for which I may apply.
- Bachelor’s degree plus four years of relevant work experience or a master’s degree or doctorate
- Experience with space mission architecture, inclusive of aerospace systems engineering, spacecraft design and subsystem development, launch processes, ground station and mission operations, and/or space system automation
- Experience with industry tools for mission simulation (e.g., STK), programming, system design, and/or data analysis
- A fundamental understanding of orbital mechanics along with the space environment and its impact on crewed and uncrewed systems
- Knowledge of historical spaceflight systems and future industry trends, inclusive of system automation, modular architectures, artificial intelligence integration, and/or aerospace workforce development
