I can attest to this. I have to move out of state to land another CFI gig. It sucks, but I’m just happy to be flying still.
Nowadays, schools want a candidate who holds CFI/CFII with around 200-300 hours of dual given. That’s to buzz around in a C152 for $20-$25 an hour. Just trying to get in the front of the hiring gate when things come back to pre-Covid levels.
i hope I get to fly with ex EpressJet guys and gals in the future, heard nothing, but awesome things.
