Getting an Instructor Rating
Hi Ppruners,
I have decided to do an instructor rating to further my flying, as its suddenly no longer possible for me to keep moving all over the country looking for little charter jobs.
Ideally looking at Melbourne, possibly Brisbane - I am trying now to find out which school is the best place to do an instructor rating.
I may be barking up the wrong tree but i'm basing my choice on not only the quality of the teaching I hope to recieve, but the prospect of being employed at the same school as soon as I'm qualified, and staying there for a few years.
What schools are good to work at as an instructor, and what's beneficial for a long term career plan that ends up flying a jet?
So far I'm thinking
GFS: they train qantas cadets
Tristar
Royal Vic Aero Club
Royal Qld Aero Club: they seem to have a deal with the Airline Academy
MFS
Do schools employ their own students, and if so, is that a good idea, or should I just get the rating and then look for a job?
