1. Would it be better to apply at Sierra with just my CFI and figure on earning the CFII/MEI while I'm there? So the sims are free and the plane is discounted, is the instructor's time free as well? How difficult is it to fit in training with all the teaching you're doing?

2. Is the interview really just a phone conversation? If so, then is the probation period used to weed out the weakest links? Any suggestions for succeeding in the phone interview and surviving the probation period? What should a guy expect during the probation period? Is it intense or more of a formality?
