Passing knowledge and experience on to an aspiring pilot is one of the most challenging yet rewarding experiences in aviation. At AFI, we take this honor seriously and prepare applicants to be the best instructor possible.
Not only do flight instructors need to have detailed knowledge and understanding of all subject areas but must also convey that information in a matter that best matches the student's learning style. Our Flight Instructor Courses address this through role-playing and extensive practice with our experienced instructors. Of equal importance we address professionalism and demeanor in every lesson to ensure a well-rounded program.
Both Initial and Instrument Add-On courses are offered
