Default Re: Air Safety Flight Academy

If you have a teaching certificate allowing you to teach beyond the 7th grade level then you are exempt from taking the FOI. That is from the Gleim CFI test prep book, I don't know the FAA reference.

I talked to these guys on the phone just after they put this ad out in April. The whole pay structure depending on certificates is still confusing, but one important thing to keep in mind (and you will learn this if you actually talk to them) is that unless you already hold your CFI then you will not be technically hired until you training is complete, and there is no assurance of this. You would simply call them and get in their CFI training class (30 day syllabus), and upon completion they will consider your for a position. Payment for their initial CFI class is made up front and i was told $6500. That $6500 would be reimbursed if you are hired.

For what its worth, I cannot recall the name of the person who I spoke with there, but I got the impression that they were a management/operations type rather than an instructor.
