Instructor seminars
Hi, just left the Airforce as a A2 QFI on Hawk/Tornado. I understand that I need to complete a FI seminar before I can instruct on civilian light aircraft. I can only find AOPA and ONTRACK that do these, any more takers? Need to do one asap.

In order to instruct on a Civil Light Aircraft you need a Civil FI rating. The Seminar is part of the process of revalidating or renewing such a rating if you already have one. If it has expired by more that 5 years you will need to do complete both the Seminar and Test and submit the application to the CAA for reissue.
See LASORS Section H http://www.caa.co.uk/docs/175/SECTION%20H%20.pdf

Just about to renew mine after many years.
Its On Track or AOPA. I am doing the seminar with AOPA and a tailor made refesher with On Track. The standard of service from both is 100%.

Actually, SW, it is para b. of LASORS H1.8 which applies in your case:
The holder of a valid CFS QFI category who, in
the 12 months has not completed a CFS
standardisation check (and/or been granted a
Certificate to Instruct) on single-pilot, single
engine piston powered aeroplanes, will be
required to complete training at the discretion of
the Head of Training of a FTO approved to
conduct Flight Instructor (Aeroplane) Courses,
and pass a FI(A) skill test with an authorised
examiner.
You also need to meet the pre-requisite Flight and Theoretical
Requirements outlined in LASORS H1.8.
The seminar requirement applies to those revalidating or renewing an existing FI Rating, not to initial issue.
