Hey Guys!

I have read all your comments...

I hesitate to do the FI course but paying 8000 euros to share our passion, well...that's life.

My question : I read, it is easy to find a job as FI, there is shortage etc etc.

So, does it mean that instructors stop flying or they go to heavy plane for example ?? if it is the second case I guess the FI route is a good think...

Really, where all of them go ??

In my opinion when I read your comments there are two possibilities :

1) FI are apprecited by companies so a lot of them find another job (ATR,737, Beech etc)

2) In fact a very few people want to be FI... so in this case we cannot say that FI route is good thing or not.

What d'you think ?
