Congratulations Tom (middle) from New Jersey on becoming a CFI Sport.
Michaela Flint, CFI and recommending instructor, (right) and Paul Hamilton DPE (left in first photo) worked with Tom everyday to get him ready for his checkride.
Turns out the day of the checkride was stormy, but that did not phase Tom who flew through the CFI checkride successfully (Paul right and Tom left in second photo) shown after that checkride on a stormy day.
Every checkride has a story. Tom, as a private pilot with a history in aviation, wants to become a CFI so he can teach his daughters. Wants one-stop-shop to get it done. Travels to Carson City Nevada for accelerated course with both his knowledge tests completed, spin training and the Sport Aviation Center on-line course completed. He is eager to learn how to teach flying so he can start training his daughters in their own LSA.
Intense flight and ground training resulted in Tom passing his CFI checkride and obtaining his goal as CFI.
We wish Tom the best of luck in his new aviation explorations!
