FI in UK
BEagle
Don't retire, the new and not so new FIs need somebody to turn to for advice, confirmation and good stories.
I don't always agree with what you say, but I do listern. We ae never too old to take advice, and advice gained from experience is priceless.
Ps I could do with some part time instructional time to keep working through. Loads of taildragger and multi experience - I think.

FIC 'reviews'
G'day all,
I am new to Pprune, have a JAR fATPL and I am seriously considering buying a FIC.
I thank all those who have commented on the difficulties of finding a job after the course, but what I really want to know is about the course itself....is the FIC course really so much fun? What do those that have done it make of it? Was it worth it from a personal, skill ganing, fun flying point of view?
Many thanks.

Whilst you pay for tuition and aircraft rental on the course, it will require effort on your part. That effort is ultimately rewarded, after passing the skills test, with being issued the privilege to instruct others.

Rage rage at the dying of the light
Ok a bit dramatic perhaps, I know that we have often strongly disagreed on things however please do not quit until you have to. Remember why you became an instructor in the first place and hopefully you will rekindle the enjoyment and fun (I know there is also a lot of grief at times as well but you really must carry on)
