Cool- learn something new every day... I'd love to find a place to get a glider rating...

yeah, good friend of mine has his glider cfi, thinks for the help guys i would do the cfii add on but already have mei ii and cfi or i guess had them.

To my knowledge if your CFI cert. has expired you must take a practical test for one of the ratings held on your CFI cert. currently. You may not at this point take like a CFII checkride if you aren't a CFII to renew it. This only works if you are still current.

Let me get this straight: If I add an Ground instructor certificate to my license, it counts as a renew? Damn, all I have to do is take those stupid writtens again! I knew it was a good idea not get those damn things while I got my CFI-A and CFI-I! Now I can use that as an excuse to renew!

Not quite. A ground instructor is a different certificate. I believe slice was refering to a glider add-on.

You are correct.

10 ways to renew your CFI. Hope this is some help.

Good link regarding CFI renewal. However, going back to the original question in the thread. Only item 1 and 2 will work once your certificate has expired.

Yeah, well keep it in mind for next time. Very easy to keep current but a pain if you let it lapse.
