CFI Ground Training

The majority of the CFI training is learning to teach and being able to present a topic both in the air and on the ground. For my training, I'm doing full ground briefs for each topic/maneuver and this involves reading each relevant section of the Airplane Flying Handbook, Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, etc., and then preparing a lecture type presentation.

Briefs completed so far (8/19/2008 - 9/22/2008):
  • Principals of Flight
  • Fundamentals of Flight
  • Normal and X-wind Takeoff and Climb
  • Manuevering During Slow Flight
  • Power Off Stalls
  • Steep Turns
  • Traffics Patterns
  • Normal and X-wind Approach and Landing
  • Turns Around a Point
  • Soft Field Takeoff and Climb
