thanks for the words on the CFI.....i would not want to ad myself to the pool and take away a job from someone that either needed to build time or needed the job...
thanks for all of your help guys....wow 8 replies in under 30 min...gotta love that!!
I would say that if want to be a career pilot (and have the time and money), go ahead and get it...it will be a good refresher on regs and theory. It is not critical, but is a good resume addition.
However if you do decide to enter the active instructor pool be conscientious about the job you do. Also, as a 3000 hour guy you would have instructing opportunities that low-time cfi's do not, due to credibility and/or insurance.
