Title:
Flight Instructors - Are You the Best?
Topic:
BEST PRACTICES FOR TEACHING – An Opportunity for CFIs to Learn from One-Another.
Speaker(s):
Chris Hope, Master CFI
Brief Description:
For you newer instructors, and those working to become a CFI - Would you like to know some of the tricks of the more experienced teachers?
For you seasoned instructors - What have you learned about molding better pilots over the years of your career?
Come spend a Saturday morning talking to other CFIs. Here are some of the topics on the table:
Landings – all dead stick, or airline type approaches?
Stalls, slow flight commercial maneuvers: why do we do these? – just for a checkride?
More than the FAA requires – Do you have your students:
Flight into KMCI?
Land on grass runways?
Practice night solo landings
Perform self-service refueling?
Perform a blindfold cockpit check?
Do you (should you) teach ForeFlight?
Are all of the pilots you touch in the FAA Wings Program? Should they be?
If you are a free-lance instructor, how do students find you?
