If becoming a pilot is your dream, here are some tips on how to choose the flight instructor that will best fit your needs:
Your Flight Instructor Must Be Qualified
Your flight instructor became one because he or she has earned an advanced pilot certificate. That means that they either hold a Commercial pilot certificate or an Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) certificate. Furthermore, they can’t teach unless they have a valid, i.e., not expired, certificated flight instructor (CFI )certificate issued by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
