Flight Instructor Program
Becoming a Certified Flight Instructor is a great option for pilots looking to gain valuable experience. Flight Instructors not only prepare students of all levels for their pilot certificates, but also conduct flight reviews, proficiency checks, and ground training sessions.
Flight Instructor initial examiner fee is approximately $1200. Fundamentals of Instruction (FOI) exam is also required for flight instructor initial rating and is approximately $150. This must be passed in addition to the Flight Instructor Airplane (FIA) written exam. Both the FOI and FIA are required to be completed prior to entering into instructor initial training program and the FIA prior to instructor add on training program. FOI and FIA test prep are not included in CFI, CFII, MEI training programs, however may be added.
Get with an instructor and they can estimate the costs with you!
Instrument Pilot Program
Scottsdale Executive’s instrument program will take any pilot to a level of safety and proficiency greater than that achieved through the private pilot program. Obtaining an instrument rating will make for a better pilot, reduce insurance premiums and is more marketable, as many aviation employers require their pilots to be instrument rated.
A minimum of 40 flight hours under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) are required by the FAA. Most students take advantage of the opportunity to obtain an instrument rating while building time towards their Commercial Pilot License. This rating also requires a FAA Third Class Medical as well as an instrument pilot airplane knowledge and practical exam.
DISCOVERY FLIGHTS
The best introduction to your pilot training is to take a Discovery Flight
On your discovery flight, you’ll get the chance to get your hands on the controls! Your instructor will guide you through the required pre-flight inspection and prepare the aircraft for flight. Then, with the help of an instructor you will get to fly the aircraft.

Interpreting the weather is like trying to understand a moody teenager—it can change in seconds and often leaves you guessing. But here`s the deal: understanding the sky`s quirks isn`t just about dodging a little rain. It`s about making sure you don`t get "the finger" from Mother Nature mid-flight. 🌩️✈️
Picture this—one moment, you`re cruising through clear blue skies, and the next, you`re flying straight into a wall of turbulence that feels like the sky`s personal vendetta against your smooth ride. 😳
Weather interpretation isn`t just a skill; it`s a superpower. By decoding those mysterious cloud formations and reading between the lines of weather reports, we pilots make sure every flight is as safe as it can be. Plus, avoiding those unexpected "sky tantrums" means less stress for everyone on board.
Remember, folks, Mother Nature doesn`t send out formal invites for her dramatic performances, so always be prepared. And always keep an eye on the weather—it might just save you from a bumpy ride and an unwanted finger wag from above! 😉
