CFII & Check Airman
Curious if anyone can point me in the right direction here:
I'm a CFI/MEI/ATP holding a check airman authorization for both proficiency and line checks in the Lear 60. I'm not a CFII however. Since I can train and evaluate pilots in instrument operations, conduct 135.297 checks etc... is there a chance for me to obtain the CFII by submitting paperwork to the FSDO without a checkride? Has anyone ever done this? I couldn't find anything in the 8900 series.
Thanks!

Thanks wizepilot,
I figured I'd tap the knowledge bank here before I make a call to the FSDO. I'm fairly sure I've heard of someone obtaining their CFI during their initial check airman observation... might not help in my situation but I've been surprised before.
Thanks again

You could have gotten your CFII if you would have applied for it during you Check Airman observation ride with the FAA. You can not submit the paperwork after the fact, unless your FSDO is VERY easy going. Just obtain it on your next FAA observed .297 or Check Airman checkride.
