FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions About the CFI Initial Instruction
Everything you need to know about starting your flight training and reaching your aviation goals in Fort Worth, Texas.
The CFI Initial rating is notoriously one of the most challenging checkrides in aviation. It requires our most experienced, senior instructors to teach you not just how to fly, but the deep psychology and advanced mechanics of how to safely instruct others from the right seat.
We focus heavily on the Fundamentals of Instructing (FOI), developing your custom lesson plans, talking while flying (which is harder than it sounds!), and safely recovering from student-induced errors in the aircraft.
We love hiring our own graduates! While we cannot guarantee a job, students who complete our LOFT Career track or CFI training are heavily favored during our recruitment process because we know they meet our Above-the-Standard requirements.
