Instructor Rating
About Instructor Rating
Knowing a lot about a subject and being able to teach it well are two different skills. Understanding the subject is like science, but teaching it is more like an art. It takes not just knowledge but also lots of practice and patience to share what you know with others. Our program is specially made for people who already have a CPL (Commercial Pilot Licence) and love teaching. They want to help new pilots learn and grow, shaping the future of flying.
