Instrument CFI.
Teach the system.
The CFII (Instrument Flight Instructor) is the add-on that lets you teach instrument students — the most universally respected add-on a working CFI can earn.
What it is. What you get.
If the CFI initial is the hardest checkride in the FAA system, the CFII practical is the most technically demanding. The flight portion is conducted entirely under simulated or actual instrument conditions, from the right seat.
What you walk away with is the highest-value instructor credential below MEI. Instrument students are typically experienced Private Pilots paying premium rates for instruction; CFIIs are in high demand.
Adventure Air's CFII program is built around our Flight Design CTLS fleet, which is fully IFR and TAA equipped.
