While I was at AirVenture this year I was asked daily how a CFI can go about reinstating their CFI certificate. It's a topic that's often overlooked in the CFI world that deserves some attention. With the information in this episode, you'll be able to confidently guide any expired CFI's who come your way looking for assistance to reinstate their certificate.
