Yeah once the next vacancy goes up you will have a couple weeks to update your info. They don’t actually start picking until the vacancy has closed.

Hey guys just been displaced to a CA position in LGA. Havent been here long so it would be probably at least another year before I could hold the 175. I'd like to know would it be advantageous to do the displacement training lock for the 145, Is it for 24 months after training and how do you put it in? I've tried RF 1 VOL but cant get the form to send when I press enter. Thanks

A commercial cert is required to be a CFI, however you are not exercising your commercial privileges.

If your paid you are.

Your statement is incorrect. Anytime you are giving instruction as a CFI, you are by definition exercising your commercial privileges as well as those of your CFI certs. The CFI certs are only valid with the commercial. Legally, you must have both in your possession/accessible to instruct in any capacity for compensation. This is basic.

I believe the FAA had no idea that people would try to rationalize their way around the obvious intent behind the regulation. I mean, they did take the time to ensure it said on the back of the plastic cert itself “valid only with commercial cert...” I’d say that is pretty obvious to any reasonable person. And think back to those commercial single and multi-e checkride orals. No way you would tell the examiner sitting across from you... “Well Mr. Examiner, technically when I go on to earn my CFIs soon, I won’t actually be engaging in commercial activity since the student is paying me to instruct them and not to fly”. “I just need to pass this commercial certificate to sort of jumpstart my CFIs is all.”
Anyone who thinks that sort of thing wouldn’t earn them a pink slip, is just flat wrong.

But then again, some people try to rationalize their way around almost any rule or law. Probably the same sort to pencil-whip their logbooks to get to ATP mins a few hours faster. It’s actually a hazardous attitude, “the rules don’t apply to you”. The antidote? Follow the rules. Don’t try to rationalize your way around them.

My .02 worth at least.
