Default Re: CFI Initial

As for advice on your CFI checkride... Find an instructor who you are confident with. That instructor should not have a problem doing spins (in an appropriately rated airplane) and someone who you think is the epitome of an instructor....
Now that maybe a tall order, and I wish I had listened to this advice. I got mine from a guy that I don't want to fly with anymore (due to unwanted epic adventures) but I studied hard, did my lesson plans, and got a signoff. I did my checkride with the FSDO in Seattle and it was a very fair checkride. Present yourself professionally and don't say "I don't know" instead say "I don't know, but I know where to find it." Study hard and good luck!
