PM me if you have any questions about this job. I am a student at SIU right now. We've had multiple instructors leave for the airlines over the summer. Good that the pipeline is opening up again, but bad since we are short of instructors.

How much is the "excellent salary" (their words) they are offering? How much do the health benefits cost?

I must say, working at a University flight school (not an academy or FBO) is probably the best way to CFI. Great kids, great environment, great benefits, tuition waivers, etc. I will be sad when I leave my current CFI gig.
Out of curiosity to any Salukis out there... Just like at U of I, we only hire out to the general public when things get REALLY bad. Has the recent hiring by the regionals already short staffed you guys that much? We've had quite a few guys leave in the past year too, especially people who have waited through the 08/09 drought.

Prolly should mention that all of our C310's are getting repainted this summer, we have an order of 5 C172 G1000 on the Chancellors desk awaiting her signature. Plus we have the brand new tech building with ERJ/ ATC sims!
