A new CFI training another CFI

[Weasil]

jdog, you've almost got it right. 61.39 does apply but you don't have to have had 3 hours of instruction for the CFI. You just have to have received instruction within the last 60 days... read it again.

A good instructor always admits when he's wrong...and i was wrong. Now I'm wondering where the hell I got the 3 hour thing...d@mn FARs...

Jdog, you weren't wrong, you didn't mention the 3 hours - Mizzouguy did - I was just clarifying what you wrote. You are definitely correct, FSDOs want to see that endorsement. I saw a student once fail a CFI ride because he had the 60 day endorsement but told the Examiner that he didn't really need it!

Oh well...

 

[mizzouguy]

I've never put the 3 hours in 60 days endorsment and it is not needed look it up in part 61 or the PTS or ask a FSDO guy who knows what hes doing. Never had one fail because of that either

Bo, tell Jim W. to do the training himself...Jim W is not your friend despite what he has told you or how you feel. John F. likes to have CFI students talk to him.

HA!

Mike,

I don't think this is WMU we're talking about...

Amazing how small this community really is!

I'm off to play "DUMB STUDENT" with my coffee as my first day with this new cfi candidate has arrived!
