The Pilot Place is pleased to announce our CFI Academy. The CFI Academy is designed to build fundamental knowledge and develop teaching skills. The FAA has already certified that you are a competent commercial and instrument-rated pilot; our job is to ensure that you become a quality aviation instructor.
What makes The Pilot Place CFI Academy different is that you can train around your schedule. We provide group classes twice weekly and individual instruction is provided when you are available. If you miss a group class, you can wait until that class is scheduled again or you can request one on one training to keep the pace you desire.
