Flight Instructor - Instrument (CFII)

This course prepares Certified Flight Instructors to become Instrument Flight Instructors. Both a ground and flight training component are included in this course. The ground training course builds on the Certified Flight Instructor Certificate by preparing the pilot to teach students how to control the airplane with reference only to instruments. Pilots will learn how to instruct basic attitude instrument flight, IFR navigation and instrumentation, the ATC system, and weather information.

Within the ground course, the knowledge areas required to pass the FAA knowledge tests to obtain a certificate will also be reviewed. The flight training course prepares pilots to instruct in the airplane using only instruments. The pilot will learn how to handle changing weather conditions and ATC requests in order to safely instruct students in an IFR environment.
