Redout,

As the requirement states:

(f) passed a specific pre-entry flight test with an FI qualified as in JAR–FCL 1.330(f) based upon the proficiency check as set out in Appendix 3 to JAR–FCL 1.240 within the six months preceding the start of the course. The flight test will assess the ability of the applicant to undertake the course.

The main issue is the last sentence!

Do study all material you can get your hands on before, BUT do not pretend to be superman. As a new FI you will be working under supervision, so show your abilities to seek and assimilate qualified guidance.

Work as an FI can be either : (1)very rewarding, (2)just a job, or (3)horrible. It all boils down to your own personality. Best of luck on deciding to go on or not!

Cheers,
