Looking for recommendations of CFI training. I want to get my ticket and would rather get it done in one swoop, like a 5-10 day program. I have the opportunity to do it at home(in Maine) but feel like it will be alot harder while working and going through the FSDO.

Do any of you have any recommendations of where to go? I've searched around the internet, found livingstonaviation in IA, seems to be possibly decent, just looking for some more options. I would have my written tests completed.

Richard Castle at the Macon Missouri airport is very good. 660-415-6998.

You'll speed up your CFI training if you first get comfortable in the CFI seat of the airplane you'll be training in, whether that's the front seat of a J3, the back seat of other tandems, or the right seat of side-by-side trainers such as Cessnas. When you can handle the airplane as well from the instructor seat as you can in the pilot seat, then start your CFI training.
