Is there a demand for Certified Flight Instructors?

Question

Instructors for a Cessna, Or Mooney. So people can get there PPL?

Answer 1

There is a lot of demand if one is good, just like in any other profession. If one wants to time build for an airline job, and doesn't have a passion for teaching, its probably best to wait until the economy turns around. This doesn't mean all airline focused CFI's are bad, I've flown with some great teachers that were time builders too... but if you dont like teaching, it will show, and it will be hard to get work, short of a time builder school, or possibly, a pay for flight type operation. (Stay away from those, as they are often career killers
