Flight Training - Certified Flight Instructor Once you have obtained the FAA Commercial Pilot certificate with instrument and multiengine ratings, you may continue your professional pilot training without interruption to qualify as a Flight Instructor (CFI), Instrument Instructor (CFI-I) and Multiengine Flight Instructor (MEI). Employment as an instructor can be important to those who desire to most rapidly accumulate the pilot-in-command (PIC) experience needed to qualify for the FAA Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) certificate. To become licensed, instructors must demonstrate excellent flying skills, thorough knowledge of the academic subjects, and be able to communicate effectively. The instrument instructor rating allows one to teach instrument procedures and accumulate valuable flight experience. The multiengine instructor rating allows one to teach multiengine procedures and accumulate multiengine time, the most valuable time needed to qualify for an ATP certificate. The next step to an Airline Career After being employed as a flight instructor for twelve to eighteen months, most pilots will be eligible to prepare for the FAA Airline Transport Pilot certificate (ATP), the highest level of pilot certification in the United States. This advanced license, which focuses on instrument flying skills with more critical performance tolerances, has a prerequisite of 1,500 hours of pilot-in command experience Other Types of Training Offered (click links below for more info) Recreational Private Instrument Commercial CFI
