Anyone who spends the money to get a CFI is ill-informed. Today there are more CFI's than there are students. You can wallow as an instructor for years or simply pay the money to ATP and get a real job now.

If you want to teach be a CFI. If you want to be an airline pilot then pay the man and become an airline pilot.

Times have changed. The old CFI route is a waste of time.
