don't know anything about them. Just found and posted
 
This my Alma Mater. University of Central Missouri in Warrensburg, MO. Just about 45 minutes east of Kansas City. PM me if you need some info. I believe they are looking for CFI's as well.

It is my Alma Mater as well. I can attest, that this school is a great school to be at for flight training. However, personally knowing the last Chief Pilot, I can honestly say, The pay is not worth the politics. IMHO.

Good Luck and PM if you need more details as well.
 
Talked to a few friends and they said that they are in need of a few CFI's if anyone out there is interested.
 
Pay depends on experience. If you have your CFII with some dual given then you get so many more dollars per hour than someone with just a CFI. Although they will hire just CFI's with no dual given. There is a fleet of 15 2000 Skyhawk R models and 1 2006 172 SP with Garmin 1000, 3 172 RG's and 2 Beech Duchess' 1 Piper Seneca and 1 Baron. All for teaching in. If you have your MEI and put in a semester or two then you can build LOTS of multi X-country experience.
 
Sounds like a good gig, I'm sure the getting double requirements for flight time... How many schools offer master's degrees in Aviation? I'm a UND grad and I know we do, I'm guessing maybe Riddle? JW
