    Fantastic product

    The CFI Lesson Plans were everything I hoped they’d be. Three formats to choose from making it that much easier.

    Not great

    If you think the "Pilot's Instructor Handbook" is so boring it puts you to sleep in 15 minutes, don't buy this product—unless you need help falling asleep faster. It doesn't simplify or restructure the material. All it does is take unchanged sentences from the "Instructor Handbook" and create lists within lists within lists for each ACS topic. That's it.
    The only other addition is presentations. Is it all useful? Not really(at least no 90$ useful), unless you enjoy reading shortened versions of already dry material. I recommend using lessons by Tod Shellnut on FOI and DeepSeek, Jappesen and creating your own lesson plans

    Hi Daniil, thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts! I completely understand that the Aviation Instructor’s Handbook isn’t exactly a page-turner, but it’s the core of what the FAA requires instructors to know, what the ACS FOI requirements are built around, and it’s exactly what the DPE will test on. The goal is to organize this material in a structured, easy-to-follow way to help aspiring CFIs prepare efficiently.

    That said, I know different learning styles exist, so I always try to make it clear through the website and emails that if something isn’t working for you, just reach out. Aviation is a family, and I truly want to help. A quick email explaining your thoughts not only lets me work with you to find a solution, but it also gives us the chance to use your ideas (and frustrations) to help shape future updates - the majority of which come directly from user feedback!

    Going back to the content, I’ll definitely looking at ways to make the FOI information more engaging - the new slides were a step in that direction adding more energy, color, and pictures, and hopefully keeping you awake a little bit longer 😉! But I’m always open to new ideas and ways to improve the content and the updates are, of course, always free!

    Appreciate your feedback, and best of luck with the instructing!
