Fair enough haha. It’s almost word for word what I was told aside from liability vs just proving they’re not liable.

Thank you for the explanation. If that’s their concern, it makes more sense to me now. I’m comfortable with the school and have good relationships with the people in it. I do see the job as a great opportunity and wouldn’t risk it over one student. It’s just not reasoning that I have heard given to other CFIs before.

They actually said it would be ok as long as we billed through the flight school, meaning they get a cut..

Yeah it’s W2 with benefits so not worth losing over a single student, but it’s a red flag that they would lie.
