In a related thread posted by goingdownthetubes, members discussed the trend of flight schools opting to remove complex singles from their fleet. This same situation has recently affected me. On the day that I took my knowledge exams, I learned that the school at which I had intended to obtain training for the CFI initial no longer has its C-182RG, making its only complex plane a light twin -- a Grumman Cougar to be specific. The flight school personnel suggested that I pursue an MEI first; however, this places me in a bit of a quadry, as I don't yet have a ME rating. So, there I was with my FOI and the FIA exam done and no airplane in which to train.
Any ideas on which avenue to pursue? Thanks in advance.
