Certified Flight Instructor (CFI/CFII)

Get Paid to Fly

AlphaFlight fosters a strong culture of giving back and one of the best ways to give back as an aviator is to become a Certified Flight Instructor (CFI/CFII). In fact, Jake, our General Manager and former Pilot Trainer for a regional airline, prefers training and mentoring pilots to flying full time.

“I enjoy instructing … teaching and sharing something with others.” – Jake Marohn 

Trained to Lead

For many on the Career Pilot path, a CFI role is often their first aviation job. Training future pilots builds your leadership skills, makes you a better pilot, and — wait for it — counts toward logging your own flight hours.

If you’re ready to take on this rewarding experience and continue your career pilot journey, contact us for enrollment details.

We offer thorough instructor training for both CFI and CFI with Instrument.
