    Traditional Flight School vs Freelance CFI

    Do you own your own plane? If not you'll probably rent one from a flight school which may require you to use their instructors. Just my assumption.

    PPL written supplement

    Pardon my ignorance but how does one effectively use the clear plastic overlay and several sheets if blank paper?

    PPL written supplement

    Exam costs $140+ and you can’t mark in the supplement. What’s the deal with that? Am I missing something? I bought one for practice exams and do much better when I am able to mark it up. Thanks! Chris

    Independant CFI’s

    This is what confuses me and I asked the county commissioners at their last meeting for clarification. The planes in question are available for rent by certificated pilots who have been checked out in them (by the now grounded CFIs lol). So I could be a low hour ppl and rent the planes and fly...

    Independant CFI’s

    I think this was exactly the case. Flight instruction was conducted for many, many years. Not listed as county employees. Something changed and the insurance company asked if they were. When it was discovered they said they wouldn’t be covered. More to the story. When this news broke, the...

    Independant CFI’s

    No the only CFIs (2) we freelance instructors. The planes were purchased for rental and flight training. Getting rid of the planes and the airport itself would make the commissioners very happy.

    Seperate policy for the airport/flight school for many years. Allegedly, policy was written under guidance by insurance guy who was on the airport board. I assume renewed/reviewed many times before recent realization. Previous manager emphatically states that the CFIs were never listed as...

    Independant CFI’s

    Manager is saying that our 2 CFI’s were not county employees. County owns the rental airplanes. Therefore CFI’s were not insurable because they were not working for the county. They were working for the students as independent contractors. He then said the CFI’s were no longer allowed to...
