Looking for a flight instructor course somewhere in Europe. Preferably doing a course in 5 weeks.

Any recommendations/experiences?

Have an awesome day!

FI Courses are not the same in all States so bear in mind when you want a job, that having trained in the State where you intend to teach may be an advantage.

Its difficult to get a unbiased opinion of FI training as most students only attend one training school and then recommend that school.
However a search of threads on the topic will show that several schools are repeatedly recommended (eg On-Track,AFT, Andrewsfield, Tatenhill etc).
I visited several and chatted to staff and students before making my choice (AFT - excellent!).

Sorry to ask but, Where does AFT stand for, and where are they located.
Google did not help.
Thanks.

Please excuse my ignorance on the topic of Easa flight instructors.
What are the pre requisites in terms of flight time to join a helicopter AFI course in EASA land?
Where (the hell ) can I find this information on line?

Many thanks
