We understand the importance of scheduling a checkride as soon as possible following the course. At this time, we have been successful in securing rides for our CFI students within a month of their course completion date. This success assumes the student is adequately prepared and has received the necessary sign-off from their instructor.
We have arrangements with multiple DPEs who commit to conducting checkrides each month. In the rare event that a DPE is unavailable at the end of your course, we’ll make every effort to schedule your checkride within the month.
