Just got done with CFI ride....what an experience! Thank you Prince, thank you CFI Academy!
Business response:
Thank you for the review, John
I had a great experience at CFI Academy. I enrolled in the CFI + CFII course and received both ratings during my time there. Prince does a fantastic job teaching the CFI ground school. He has a thorough understanding of all things aviation and presents the information in a way that sticks, not how you'd usually find in most ground schools with instructors reading info straight from a powerpoint. Kyle, Seth, and Jake are all fantastic flight instructors and really go out of their way to make sure you succeed. I flew mostly wi... read more
To start off I would give The CFI Academy a sixth star if I could. As someone who had stress going into the CFI initial checkride, I was assured I could take the exam when I was ready for it. This in turn provided a lot comfort in taking advantage of all the knowledge Prince and his employees have to offer without feeling rushed. First time ORAL AND RIDE NO BUST. I could not recommend this establishment more as they provide a sense of family with your fellow classmates and instructors.
Thank y‘all for this incredible experience. This was an awesome time with passionate people. I can only recommend this Institution to whoever is interested in becoming an CFI. I will come back for sure.

Great school. Very knowledgeable instructors. Study and study and do everything the instructor tells you. And you will be ready the 3rd or 4th week.

Very happy!! Highly recommended. CFI done in 3 weeks. DPE is thorough, meticulous, but fair. Felt like I was over-prepared. Coming back this fall for CFII and MEI. Best instruction I have received so far. Prince is very knowledgeable.

I should've done this sooner. I was here last winter to get my CFI done. It was a small group setting. I think it was 5 of us. We all finished in the 3rd week as advertised. 4 passed on the 1st attempt; I was not so lucky. The failure is not to be blamed on them. I completely forgot to do any clearing turns. Went for the re-test the next morning and passed!! Very happy. Being a foreign student, it was important to me to finish on schedule. Happy about my choice. CFII later this summer.

I was there in Oct of 2018. I signed up for a 3 week CFI course. Got done on schedule!! And first time pass!! I highly recommend CFI Academy to anyone looking to get their CFI done. Don't waste your time or money elsewhere. Prince nows what he is doing, and he has been doing this for a long long time. I was able to stay on campus. Loved the ability to cook there. I did go to the airport restaurant occasionally, which is owned by the airport owners'. Real nice people as well. I am hoping to be back there this summer to get my... read more

I was looking for a flight school to get my commercial and CFI done. CFI Academy was referred by a couple of friends in WA who went there for their training. I was at the Academy for 4 weeks total - got my commercial and CFI done! Could have been 3 weeks, but we lost 3-4 days due to heavy rain in December. Prince is an excellent instructor - the best one I've ever had so far. Thank you Fadi and Kevin as well.
