Well, I made it through my CFI Initial with Tillery. He is an interesting guy to say the least, but overall it was a great experience. CFI School was ZERO fun with the exception of spin training. It was a lot of studying and cramming my brain full of stuff for 2 weeks. My checkride went great through the 7 1/2 hour oral but fell apart in the flight. I became overheated so terribly bad that I started messing up on simple things. I decided to head back to CRG and received my first Letter of Disapproval. Sucks, but it is what it is. I returned to CRG on Saturday and had my retraining flight and nailed everything, so yesterday was the big day again. Thankfully I made it through the oral and some of the flight! The flight went great and I walked out with a handshake and congrats from Mr. Tillery along with my newly minted MEI. Now on to my CFII and CFI rides. Almost there!!!

Sounds EXACTLY like my experience in 2010, also with Tillery. Congratulations, and keep going!

Well guys and gals, it's been a long journey but as of Father's Day, I am officially done training with ATP. I had my CFII and CFI-SE check rides yesterday and passed them both! This makes me officially done with the program. Thanks you all for your kind words and support throughout all of this.

Overall, I must say that my experience with ATP was pretty awesome. I got to meet some great people including my classmates and instructors here in TPA and JAX along with the DPE's in TPA and JAX.

It took a lot of hard work and dedication but in the end, it was well worth every penny.

Wooooooohooooooooo!!!!!!!!
