CFI Lesson Plans

The CFI lesson plans are an amazing tool!! I was struggling with figuring out how to start my lesson plans, and these have been an amazing template and tool to help me build my own lesson plans. If you’re on the fence about it, I highly suggest taking advantage of these!!

Very good.

I appreciate the thorough detail and effort put into this document. I can only imagine the months of work it took to do so. My only two critiques that lead me not to give this an "outstanding" or 5 star review include:
1. Repetition
-There are countless times I go through the material and have the same concept repeated three times in a slightly different manner. That may be intentional for greater recall, but it seems time consuming and unnecessary for my sake.
-Second, I personally feel that a lesson plan with this detail and scope of knowledge could use some additional guidance. My greatest battle is working to make this material appropriate for the plane I am using (C172S) and to find a way to make this outline flow into a presentation. The PowerPoint and condensed versions are helpful for this, so I am not extremely concerned. Nevertheless, the complete document feels like it could be structured in a more efficient way to allow for more natural teaching.
I hope my ideas are clear and transmitted effectively enough that they can be useful to you. Thank you for providing this content to us. It is a valuable asset in my training!

Love the lesson plans. Not sure about the power point. Maybe they didn’t download properly.

Hi David, I'll send you an email and we'll get the PowerPoints figured out. Thanks for the review and I'm very glad to hear the lessons are working out!

These lesson plans are great! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to buy some. It’s also great that Backseat Pilot continues to update them as stuff changes.

Amazing format and very well built lesson plans. Some of them don’t have the best flow for actual presenting, but they give you a word document copy that you can edit. So I’m the few special emphasis ones I needed to work on I was able to just copy and paste the information in a different order. Helped me pass my CFI initial and has helped me fill in the deficiencies in my knowledge as well
