A key component in modern flight training is comprehensive ground knowledge and powerful study tools. This discussion starts with a look back at the evolution of ground schools and airman testing through the years. Then moves on to the characteristics and features CFI's should be looking for in a quality ground school to recommend to their customers. It wraps up with a review of Sporty's CFI portal.

With the information in this episode, you'll be able to confidently guide any expired CFI's who come your way looking for assistance to reinstate their certificate.  Useful links: 14 CFR § 61.199 Reinstatement requirements of an expired flight instructor certificate.
