Join NAFI: www.nafinet.org Vist San Carlos Flight Center: https://sancarlosflight.com/ Join the movement, officially finish your CFI today: https://sancarlosflight.com/training/cfi-finishing-school Join our talk with Dan Dyer of San Carlos Flight Center to discuss their unique program they call "CFI Finishing School." Described as a "deep dive into aerodynamics until you absolutely can understand it, and more importantly can teach it. A program that creates a real understanding, beyond the rote answers required for the FAA Knowledge Test." SCFC goal is to also show you tips for how flight instruction should unfold in the aircraft to make your students reach their full pilot competency. What first fundamentals are critical to a student’s first few flights? How you can take even basic maneuvers and use them to make your students better at landing? Why the sequencing and grouping of flight education is important. It’s a whole week of things you should have learned but likely weren’t taught in your quick CFI program. Director of Operations at SCFC, Dan Dyer has dedicated much of the last two decades to aviation, first in helicopters and then in airplanes. He has been an instructor for more than 15 years, and is known for his effective safety seminars. Dan originated SCFC’s founding principle and motto: safety, community, and adventure. His enthusiasm for learning has helped to make SCFC the fastest growing flight school in the Bay Area.
