Default Gold Seal requirements met!

My last two students (also hopefully literally my last two students) both passed their instrument ride which brings my ratio to 10/2 which means I can just barely squeek in on the gold seal requirements. Instructed for over a year but I only have 10 IACRA sign-offs. Guess that is a peril for working at a 141 school as the chief instructor performed most of the sign offs, even if they were part 61.

I love teaching instruments, its so darn fun.

Congrats! I'd be willing to bet you're an excellent instructor with an attitude like that.

Make sure you have an advanced ground instructor rating or they well deny your gold seal. Dumb as it is the advanced ground instructor rating is a requirement. I was 10/10 and was actually issued a gold seal by my FSDO but the FAA kicked it back denied because I was missing the ground instructor rating. I knew about that requirement but didn't really have much motivation to go get it.

Oh yeah, that is right. I knew about that obviously but for some reason forgot all about it. I don't have either the AGI or IGI.

The AGI is quick and easy if you are a current CFI. Should be no problem for you.
