FAA approved CFI in Brazil
Greetings fellow pilots,
I am pretty sure this question has already been answered in the past, but I am moving from St Louis to Campinas, in Brazil, and was wondering if anyone here knows of an FAA approved CFI in the Campinas region?
I need training done in English, and the hours signed-off by an instructor that is certified by the FAA. Any ideas or thoughts?
Thanks in advance!

Why do the hours need to be signed off by an FAA Instructor?
