Welcome to Flight Instructor Ground School!
This course focuses on the aeronautical knowledge you need to serve as an FAA-certified flight instructor.
The course lectures draw on materials I have personally used to train flight students for decades, including critical topics such as:
fundamentals of instruction
CFI RESPONSIBILITIES
risk management
ENDORSEMENTS
lesson plans
student solos
Each of the eleven topics includes a series of video lectures and detailed animations that clearly illustrate key concepts. All of the course material is available online once you’re enrolled on the FlightInsight course page.
After many of the video lectures, you have the opportunity to answer a series of practice questions modeled on the actual FAA test. You can take practice tests at any time as a dress rehearsal for the real thing, modelled as follows:
​
Fundamentals of Instructing (FOI): 50 Questions - 90 Minutes
Flight Instructor - Airplane (FIA): 100 Questions - 150 Minutes
After successfully completing this course you will be able to:
​
• Apply your knowledge toward providing safe, efficient flight instruction;
• Take the FOI and FIA Knowledge tests administered by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for pilot certification.
Completion of this course entitles you to an endorsement to take both the FOI and FIA tests.
At only $229 for unlimited lifetime access, this course provides exceptional value for any pilot considering becoming a flight instructor.

If you're looking to brush up prior to a checkride you could instead opt for monthly access to our Flight Instructor Course priced at $79 per month.
