Not sure I buy this one. CFI's are professional pilots and, even better, they are PICs. Honestly I think that civilian pilots who didn't fly some significant GA (CFI, night cargo, etc) are lacking a key foundation of their professional development. No amount of time in the dash (or an RJ) is going to make up for that.

And MAPD does not count for anything...you had adult supervision the entire time.
