CFI renewal

[jimmyw]

Anyone with input regarding American Flyers renewal program and how it compares to Gleim ? Just wondering how good it can be with such a low rate and free renewal afterward for life.

American Flyers has worked great for me for the last decade of renewals. I don't actively instruct anymore, but want to keep the certifications. They keep up with current aircraft types and regs and the content appears relevant. The hardest part for me is remembering my password every two years. I'm also happy not to have to pay for anymore renewals.

Been using American Flyers to renew since 2004 and it works great!

Works good, lasts long time. Use their paperwork service and it's turnkey.

I've tried the others...Gleim and Jepp/Aopa?

I used American flyers last time and will continue to use them.

Very good !

I used AceCFI this time. All online, all text, so it works on any device. I finished in one day, and had my temporary certificate by email the next day. I don't actively instruct, and likely never will, but want to keep the cert alive just in case.

Thanks all for taking the time to respond.Think I'll try AM Flyers instead of Gleim

Gleim. A few hours at home on the computer.

Just finished up the AF FIRC. Relatively painless and use their paperwork service, well worth the money.

Another vote for AF. Hope they stay in business forever!
