A bit of help?
I have 1200 hrs rotary (Gazelle) and 100 hours fixed wing (PA28/C152 and Robin 2160). I have been informed that there is an "assistant instructor" rating that can be attained...Is this correct and if so how would I go about achieving it for fixed wing aircraft? I am 29 years old and very keen to fly fixed wing more often. At present I am doing about 50 hrs (fixed wing) per year. Thank you for your time.

Well I take it from the amazing response to my question that there isnt an assistant instructor rating...
Does anyone out there become an instructor because they love flying and want to pass on their knowlege of flying to budding pilots or do people just use it as a stepping stone to the airlines???

I think you've got the wrong forum! Try posting your question on the Instructors' forum ot speak to Flight Crew Licensing at the CAA (get it from the horse's mouth if you can put up with their damn stupid buck-passing automated switchboard gizmo and have a week to spare!).

Wibbly P,
Maybe you'll know the answer to a related question. For the FI(H) can any of those 300 hours with 100 PIC be fixed wing? I'm doing my CPL(H) GFT next month, and wonder how many more rotary hours I need to do an instructors rating - can't find it in writing anywhere.
