CFI Academy

The ground school was superb! This is a custom school, where the individual needs of each candidate are addressed. This is not a CFI cookie cutter mill. My knowledge was increased exponentially and the things I learned will help me be a great CFI. The lead instructor/school operator is exceptionally knowledgeable and takes a personal interest in every person that walks in. The location is fun (uncontrolled privately owned airport with an awesome & vintage cafe on the field) and close to Sacramento.

CFI Academy helped me get my CFII in under a week. Prince is a great instructor, and I really enjoyed the school's environment. I also got to know other pilots training for various ratings. Everyone was sharing knowledge and helping others study, which is part of the environment that I liked about this place.

CFWhy, I hate this word, but.... One of requirements to receive endorsements from Prince is each student must bring one lesson from CFI pts and give lesson to other students. Every single time I provide lesson in front, Prince always told me please explain “WHY” it happens. It drove me crazy and sometimes it was really stressful. Addition to this he was really good at pretending to be student who doesn`t know anything about aviation. Whenever I didn`t make answer he asked me, there existed long awkward moment in the class. I never liked that moment for sure and I was trying to do something to avoid that happen in the class. So I spent more time on preparing every lesson in CFI pts and keep sharing idea with classmates after class. It was main driving forces to become flight instructor. During my CFI checkride, I had to demonstrate that I am able to teach “WHY” it happens. I believe CFI academy is best place to overcome “WHY” phobia and successfully finish up CFI checkride in other words.

It has been a very interesting time with CFI Academy - getting my CFI/CFII reinstated by adding the MEI-rating. So many great people comes by to do their various licenses and ratings - meeting great people/pilots in the environment Prince sets up, adds true value to education, knowledge and experience. Learn more - know more - make yourself a better and more proficient pilot/instructor - on several levels - that is what being Good Aviators is all about - right? And hey - I don't think it is needless to say that Pricing is Good
