South Florida (PBI/FLL/MIA Area) CFI Work

[Mike Wise]

Hey guys, 1 month until my CFI checkride. I know there are a bunch hiring down in that area, but was curious if anyone had any insight on places to seek or avoid. Thanks in advance!

FSI in Vero Beach is hiring. They need CFI's urgently. Go have a chat with them, even if you haven't taken your CFI checkride yet.

Wayman at HWO/OPF is alright and busy

 

[CFI A&P]

You should probably stay away from Kemper, Sliver State, JetU, and maybe Aeronautix too.

JetU

That's been dead for a long, long time now, not sure about the rest.

Overall attention to the detail will help choosing a good place. Problem is most new CFIs don't know what to look for and it's kinda hard to explain.
Look at everything I guess
- look at the floor at the maintenance shop if own mx.
- look at how many students loiter around and what they are doing/overall mood
Etc...
