FI rating at weekends
Does anyone know of an FI instructor who would complete the FI(r)course at weekends only or at least the majority of it.
I am very limited on when i can take holidays, so if any are reading this or anyone knows someone this would be appreciated, say within 80 miles of the midlands Have fun flying :ok: |
I would expect plenty of instructors will fit in around you, doubt you'd have trouble finding one if you just ask around.
I used On Track Aviation for my FIC, just weekends for the first couple of months. All their instructors are part-time, they have other full-time jobs. One or two of them work Monday-Friday at Oxford, so doing the FIC at weekends fits in perfectly with their other commitments. I have no connection with them other than being a satisfied customer.

I'd give David Coulson a call at Cranfield Aero Club: sure he will squeeze you in. He's also a fine instructor.
01234 752272:ok: |
Try Peter Skinner c/o Tatenhill Aviation on 01283 575283. He should be available in a week or two. His preference is weekends as he instructs part-time. Good reputation. PM me if you want more info.

FFF,
Do they do weekend FI(R) at Blackpool where you are? I live in Lytham at the weekends so would be interested. Not this year, but possibly next year certainly. GV |
I also did mine mostly weekends with On-Track at Wellesbourne, so can happily back up all FFF's comments.
They have a well-known poster on these boards as one of their FIC instructors, who'd be far too modest to plug them here. |

Im also looking at doing a FI rating in the North West. Drop me a PM if you want to discuss things and maybe do it together. blueb0y79 |
GulfStreamV,
As far as I know, there is only one school at Blackpool who offer the course, and that is the only school at Blackpool who I would not recommend. FFF ------------- |

Happy flying :ok: |
