Hello Everyone!
I have my CFI re-instatement check ride this weekend (hopefully if plane and weather hold out). It'll be really nice to get back to teaching again!
Unfortunately I let my CFI expire in June 2002 due to deployment/ war situations.
Anyone ever been through the second check ride before?
Allow me to offer some advice to anyone who'll listen.
DON'T EVER LET YOUR CFI EXPIRE!!!
Worst mistake of my life. Go out and take the refresher course if you don't meet the student training wickets. It's worth it!!! If it expires you'll feel the void in your wallet in 2 places... the spot where your certificate would have been, and the spot where your money used to be!! (I spent about $1000 getting trained back up for the check ride, instead of the $150-200 it would have take to do the refresher)
Everyone take care and wish me luck (for the plane and weather)!
