Anyone in NZ or OZ holding a FAA CFI rating?

Hi,
I need a CFI from the states for a Biannual Flight Review in NZ, (or even OZ if necessary). If you have a current CFI rating or know someone who does, please let me know. I'll go to Oz if I gotta.
Cheers.

Try dennis thompson in ardmore, I think his son is FAA qualified for this that and the other.

Tried that route, but dead end thus far.
Thanks though.
How about any US Commercial pilots over here on a layover up for a yuk?

I just renewed my FAA CFI. I'm not sure how much help I can be but I'll be in BNE from next week on.

Bi-annual? Twice a year seems like a lot...

Bi annual, Dragun, means twice a year or once every two years (Concise Oxford). Most bi annual references in aviation mean the latter meaning.

Tough crowd. Thanks to Kenny, but I hope to track someone down in NZ....by the time I get a tik to OZ, a rent-a-car, a hotel and hire a plane, I may as well drop the coin (that I don't have) to head back to CA.
If y'all want a good laugh, I actually quit my last job earlier than i wanted to coincide with the month my PC was due in an effort to help them keep costs down.....small company that treated me well.
So much for Kharma...had i just stayed another month, I would've gotten that PC and not be in this mess.
going forward.....anyone know anyone with a CFI headed to NZ? even on holiday or layover??
