Certificated Flight Instructor as of October 11, 2022

On October 11th, 2022, I passed the Certificated Flight Instructor practical test and officially became a Certificated Flight Instructor (CFI). A Flight Instructor can provide the required flight training to earn a Sports Pilot Certificate, Recreational Pilot Certificate, Private Pilot Certificate, Commercial Certificate, and conduct flight reviews for these certificates. Earning the CFI certificate requires passing a knowledge exam, receiving a spin endorsement, and the necessary preparation in knowledge and airmanship to meet the Commercial Airplane Airman Certification Standards (ACS) and Flight Instructor Airplane Practical Test Standards (PTS). I passed the knowledge exam in August 2021, received the spin endorsement in September 2021 (over 50 spins in a Cessna 150 Aerobat), and started the final training in August 2022 and earning the certificate in October 2022.
