Can a CFI sign off a MCA/MCI applicant?
Just curious if a regular CFI/II/MEI can sign off MCA/MCI test takers. My flight school has a CATS testing center and we see 10-12 of these guys per week asking about this.
From the research I did, seems like I just need to have them fill out an IACRA and electronically sign it...?
Thanks.

I work at a flight school where we are about 80% retired military. All of them had to fill out an 8710 online and then setup an appointment with the FSDO. From there they took all their military forms with them, the FSDO reviewed them, and then printed them out a temp certificate.
I can also through this in that if the guy was T-38, F-15, or any multi in the military that was centerline thrust as deemed by the FAA, not the military, they will have that restriction.

I did my CFI through the MCI. Took the test without an endorsement and used the Sheppard Air guide to MCI. Made my appointment with the local FSDO letting them know I was going for the MCI. They looked at my DD214 (T34C flight instructor) and gave me a temporary certificate all in 30mins.

As far as I remember, no special coordination or permission was required to take the test up front.
Sheppard Air MCI process = HIGHLY recommended!
