TT - congratulations on your news!

The FI situation is not that healthy at the moment. In 2001 we found it difficult to find enough part-time FIs; now I have to turn people away. A chum who works at another school tells me that they're constantly receiving CVs and constantly having to say no. Also, worryingly, some FI(R)s they've assessed have been of a pretty indifferent standard - not all schools have high standards, it would seem.

However, smyers, if you are still determined to embark on a CPL and FI(R) course, you will find the names of some good FTOs here on PPRuNe.
