CFII Candidates, Rejoice!
The new Cleared for Instrument Instructing course and curriculum cumulatively add an Instrument Instruction (CFII) rating to a CFI’s Flight Instructor certificate.
The courseware is the latest addition to King Schools’ Cessna Flight Training System (CFTS).
The program includes home study material plus flight school tracking of FAA Part 141 approvable syllabi for Private Pilot, Instrument Rating, Commercial Pilot, Flight Instructor, and now the Instrument Flight Instructor (CFII) rating. The complete set of courses allows a flight school to develop a professional pilot program by which candidates may proceed seamlessly from zero hours to airline hire.
King Schools’ CEO Barry Knuttila stated: “The CFTS was created to make it easy for a flight school to start up and run a complete FAA Part 141 program that qualifies for VA approval and student financing. It’s a turn-key system that includes digital record keeping and electronic signature as well a free ‘concierge service’ to assist flight schools in acquiring their Part 141 approvals.”
Mr. Knuttila added: “This system is designed to fully support our flight school and university customers as they face an increasingly competitive marketplace in the airline training industry.”
King Schools’ CFTS is used by over two-hundred flight schools including all Cessna Pilot Centers, plus 25 colleges and universities.
All King Schools CFTS courses integrate with the Course Tracking Application (CTA) which provides digital support to flight instructors though iPad/iPhone apps, and may be used both on the ground and in flight. The apps enable instructors to review and track student progress, identify areas of difficulty, and audit progress toward course completion. The CTA is provided without charge to all flight schools using the Cessna Flight Training System.
The Cleared for Instrument Instructing course has a retail price of $374, and is discounted for profitable resale at participating flight schools.
