Hi,

I'm sure these questions have been asked before, but i'll ask again.

I'm starting CFI Training soon. I heard that it's best to take the written before you start flying. What are the best training materials to get to pass this test? Anyone know of a complete package that will give me everything I need to pass the written, as well as the practical?

Next, I have a full time job and I would like to teach nights and weekends, are there any CFI's here that do that as well? Is it reasonable to assume that flight schools would hire a night/weekend instructor?

One last thing: Is it better to have a multiengine rating before becoming a CFI, or do most people get that rating while being a CFI?

Thanks for the help!
Felix
