Instrument Flight Instructor Certification Course (CFI-I)

The Instrument Instructor as the name implies will allow you to teach instrument students.  A little known fact about the CFI-I is that you don't have to be a Certified Flight Instructor first, so you may elect to start at the CFI-I level.  Most people start right at CFI and then add ratings to the basic, but you don't have to.  Enough trivial

The CFI-I course is pretty short especially if you are already a CFI.  You need to learn how to teach basic instrument flying, that is how to control the airplane solely by reference to the instruments.  You need to understand what instruments are primary and which are secondary for the task you are doing.  For the student, it is very much like starting to learn to fly all over again.  You must learn to teach straight and level, turns, climbs, and descents, and flight at various airspeeds, just like lesson one and two in the private pilot syllabus.  Once you master these tasks, you go on to teaching navigation, instrument approaches and landings from the approach. 

Your flying skills are judged as well as your teaching skills, so our course will ensure proficiency in both areas.

Cost is variable depending on hours, but will be in the $2,000.00 - $3,000.00 range.
