American Flyers FIRC
 

Does anyone have any experience with the american flyers Flight Instructor Refresher Course. Good and Bad results would be appreciated. It looks like it will take a long amount of time to complete it versus a weekend course.

The weekend FIRC is usually a good deal because you get to meet a lot of people and it's more of a guided conversation and less of a lecture. Pretty entertaining...lot's of stories :rolleyes:

The online FIRC might be good if they still offer the life-time deal (pay once, retake the course every two years for life).

I wouldn't recommend much else at AF, and I suggest that you do not pay them to process your paperwork....do it yourself. If they screw up and don't get it done on time, then your ticket will expire and a checkride will be required :eek:. Of course this has never actually happened :rolleyes:

i teach at the flyers in fort worth and the gentlemen that teaches the class is great. got a job with pan am at 18 and was weatherman in dc and ny. he has forgotten more about aviation then i know. the online class is good if you cant get the weekend off. i would rather take the weekend course.
