Stay away from anything that wants a contract.. your a pilot.. don't give into anything.. there are plenty of ways to get your experience.. if you study hard and are a decent stick.. you can get your cfi in one week. Technically only requires 3 hours of flight training. I have signed over a dozen off recently that came to me fully prepared and with writtens done using sheppard. I flew with them that day.. called the fsdo, got them an examiner and they were a cfi.. ez.. if you can't get yourself ready for a cfi check ride.. how do you expect to drink from the firehose during 121 training.
