It is a bonafide CFI as any other. Anyone can get a Commercial, Instrument, Multi given enough time and money; not really the case with becoming a flight instructor. BTW, What twin would you plan on using?

Thanks for the advice! I think it will definitely add something to a resume. It might make the difference in getting a call back or not.
I'd use a Piper Seneca, I have about 240 PIC hours in it.
