Can't seem to find anyone actually offering a CFI in the PHX area at all. ATP only offers it out of JAX and CAE/Oxford in Mesa has also dropped their CFI-I. TransPac offers one but I believe it is close to 9k, maybe more. Any info on a CFI-I in the PHX area would be greatly appreciated.

Just use one of the small schools around Phoenix. That would be cheaper and timing would be more flexible.

I highly recommend chandler air service.
Chandler Air Service

that is where I did my CFI and CFII. Very experience folks.

good luck,

I'll second the Chandler Air Service recommendation. Good experienced folks and good prices.

Just don't fly with that Curt Langenhorst fella, I hear he's a yeller! Might even make you cry! LOL

And you even get to do your required spin training in a Great Lakes! Fun Bonus!

Third that.
