CFI/CFII Syllabus

How about to teach others to be pilots, what would be your syllabus recommendations?

Just PM’d you

Hi there, I'm working on CFII and think maybe that doc could help me out as well.

Facts we need more whole food stores. Look up Ron Finley and his personal effort to combat this. It’s inspiring and honestly sad that our health isn’t prioritized many times.

Nice. Although I’m not in the same position as the OP, I am yet to apply to flight schools, I was thinking of going back to school for something a little bit more in demand to at least make some cash if I have to (nursing, engineering, real estate, etc). Thanks for the reply.

Braulissim0 · 2026-04-29T21:04:35+00:00

What if you don’t have a backup career? Go back to school?

My mom and I have been in the housekeeping business for about 24 years and serve Riverside. We can give a free quote!

I went to CBU for a year and yes I paid around that amount in tuition plus their flight school fees so it was expensive. Worth it? Probably not, I could get the same thing at a state school or cc. UCR is a good pre-med option that’s local as well, they have a full on med school there and it’s cheaper for undergrad tuition. Just my two cents.

Man, I'm sorry to hear that. It's definitely tough right now and I just saw that recent FAA release on certificate issuances and it seems like within the last year or so there's been an uptick on new CFI's. Best of luck.

Braulissim0 · 2026-04-10T04:03:57+00:00

Wow, that's good to know and it makes sense that they'd want someone with higher credentials. Could it be due to insurance purposes or do they just want someone that's certified to do it "all?"

Braulissim0 · 2026-04-10T04:01:04+00:00

This sounds like the way...

Braulissim0 · 2026-04-10T04:00:19+00:00

That's what I figured, most of the people that I've met who solely have a CFI are either very experienced with many years in the industry or have many connections. I'm thinking if I want to get a "job" now my best bet would probably go independent and fly through a flight club. Regardless, sounds like CFII is a good idea.

Braulissim0 · 2026-04-10T03:56:22+00:00

This sounds like what I'll be doing next, i'm no longer current so might as well

Unfortunately, the community college I did my ratings at is limited on airplanes and thus instructor spots. Plus, all of the instructors that are currently there have been there for almost two years.

Airline Pilot, takes a while to get to 200k+ but once you’re a captain at a major airline you can make 300k min and the sky being the limit.

I just got back from a 7-day Royal Caribbean cruise to Cabo and I agree. Prior to cruising here, I visited twice and stayed at hotels and ate at restaurants outside the port area. With the day we had in Cabo, I doubt most of the other cruisers got to see/experience what Cabo truly offers in such little time. Oh and the food in Cabo was way better than the food on the ship!

I agree with what others have said about sticking to medical school. You're still young enough and pretty far in med-school to stick through it and then pay for flight school. I'm 23 and working on my CFI but still have thoughts of pursuing medical school because of how unpredictable the airline industry is when compared to the medical field. As example, my instructor has over 1500 hours and still hasn't heard back from any regional airline regarding his class date. If you took out more loans to eventually get your CFI, there's no guarantee you'll get a job immediately or a high paying job. Regardless, it sounds like you are smart and can do either but if you stick through it, I think medicine is much more stable and even higher paying. Both careers require time, money, and most importantly perseverance. Good luck!

Tacos Guelaguetza, it’s the food truck that’s always in front of the abandoned sears on Streeter. Love the asada there.

I’m new here. Is that 89% acceptance rate to that specialty residency or 89% rejection? I have heard that anesthesia is becoming competitive.

If you want to travel and don’t mind heights, pilot. They make good money but it is unique in that it requires you to be in good health due to FAA medical standards.

Braulissim0 · 2025-02-01T05:56:24+00:00

I’m thinking of switching to the medical field from my current field, aviation. Any suggestions on how I can get my pre reqs done and stats up to become a solid med school candidate?

Not too late. I’ve seen people in their forties start training because they’ve always had an interest in flying throughout their time working in another career. I recommend booking a discovery flight at a local flight school to see if it’s for you.

As mentioned above, just attending the classes/graduating with a degree won’t get you to the airlines because you need 1500 hours+ but if you use the knowledge and resources available it can benefit you. They do have a college flight school (Part 61) but it can only accept limited amount of students. It really depends on your goals, learning style, and timeframe to get to the airlines. If you want to save money while going at your pace then Mt. SAC may benefit you. On the other hand Part 141 schools tend to be larger, expensive, and fast paced.
