I have not yet personally seen a 300 hours PPL that had personal flying skills that were already at a high enough standard they could immediate start a FI course.
Thats why we have a pre-entry test and then a 30 hour flying + 125 hour theory FI Course.
The aim of the course is to teach you to be a flying instructor, your skills should be high enough at the commencement of the course.If pilots built up their hours doing some challenging flying rather than S & L cross countries the standard would be higher!
