Re: Sport - CFI testing
MY DPE (a retired high school teacher) warned me she would be hitting the FOI stuff hard on the CFI-S oral, and she did. I would take the FOI exam even if you don't have to- you might be teaching it later. SIA and FIA (and AGI) draw fom the same question bank. 70 instead of 100 questions due to no c...

Re: CFI-S Knowledge test prep
I did the FOI first like you, and then I spent a few months studying for the AGI and CFI-S at the same time. The remainder of this post is copy/pasted from my talk I gave at Oshkosh about prepping for the CFI-S exams: To study for the written exams, I mainly used the ASA Instructor test prep book fo...

First season as a Sport CFI
Passed my CFI-S checkride a year ago with just over 200hrs total time. I am part of a small club that owns a J-3 Cub, we don't fly it in the winter. Our club has a long-time instructor that everyone (including me) uses. I figured this summer I would log a few hours of dual given, maybe do a flight r...

Re: CFI-S presentation at Oshkosh
I'll look into doing that. This will be the 4th time I have given this talk (first time at Oshkosh), it's a 45-minute presentation. I am also looking into posting the narrated PowerPoint on YouTube at some point.

Re: All training from Sport CFI now counts towards higher ratings
If i read the new rules correctly, you can't apply training from a Sport CFI towards a Private unless you actually have COMPLETED your sport rating? "b) The holder of a sport pilot certificate may credit flight training received from a flight instructor with a sport pilot rating toward the aero...

Re: How many Sport CFIs?
Never mind. The database I downloaded was corrupted. There are about 500 CFI-S holders

Re: How many Sport CFIs?
I don't think it matters because any CFI can instruct students toward a Sport Pilot certificate. As a CFI-S myself, I am aware that any CFI can train a sport pilot student. I was just curious how many other CFI-S’s were out there. I figured there would be more. I had already started working on my C...

How many Sport CFIs?
I downloaded the FAA airmen database, could only find 63 CFI-S Sport Instructors (including, of course, John and Martha King)
63? That's it?
63? That's it?

ASA Prepware issues
Just passed my FOI with a 94% (missed 3 really oddly-worded questions that were not in the Prepware question bank) Some of the questions you just can't win: Question 6040.13 lists programming a GPS receiver as a skill of the Psychomotor Domain Question 6040.12 lists programming a GPS receiver as a s...
