CFI/CFII with availability to add more students to roster
I am a CFI/CFII with some open slots for students looking for IPC, Flight Review, Private Pilot, Commercial, Instrument, or CFII. Can fly most days of the week and have access to 2-3 Cessna's to stream line training time. I am an aviation enthusiast that is looking into buying my own personal Light Sport aircraft for joy flights and am in the process of getting my tail wheel endorsement. Can't wait to see you in the left seat!

I am a 26 year old small business owner and flight instructor. I like most things out doors or with an engine, specifically in the air! I enjoy sky diving, motorcycles, and scuba diving.
I think we are all in the same boat (or airplane if you will) of having a dream of flying, either for recreation or for a career, and yet none of us are made of money. That is why my goal is to help bring some clarity to what training you should do to safely reach your goals, but with out breaking your wallet!

Most lessons are scheduled for around one hour of flight time, but they often take closer to two hours. That’s because your flight instructor will spend time before and after each flight briefing you on what to expect, reviewing your performance, and setting goals for the next lesson.
For specialized instruction, such as a flight review or an endorsement the session may take longer. You can always discuss the estimated duration with your instructor in advance.
If your lesson runs longer or shorter than planned, instructors on Skyfarer can make a Post-Lesson Adjustment through the platform to reflect the actual time spent.
When choosing a flight instructor (CFI), it’s easy to focus on the hourly rate—but that’s often only part of the picture. Flight training isn’t just about cost; it’s about value, progress, and quality of instruction. A “cheaper” rate may sound appealing at first, but if it takes twice as long to reach your goals, you could end up spending more in the long run.
It’s also important to understand what’s included in that rate. It may also include aircraft access and fuel. A well-qualified instructor with a thoughtful training approach can make your learning experience safer, more efficient, and far more rewarding—especially when you’re flying with friends or family down the line.
It depends on your pace and schedule! Under FAA Part 61, you’ll need a minimum of 40 hours of flight training to earn your Private Pilot Certificate — at least 20 hours with an instructor and 20 hours of solo practice. However, most students complete their Private Pilot training in 60 to 80 hours, depending on lesson frequency, study habits, the type of training aircraft used, weather, and the airport.
You should discuss this with your flight instructor to set up a training plan and keep your progress steady and efficient.
Each listing shows an instructor’s background, certifications, specialties, and student reviews. Don’t hesitate to ask plenty of questions — finding the right fit matters. We also have a blog article that provides specific tips and expert advice for students and pilots.
Student pilots are not permitted to carry passengers during solo flights. However, friends or family members may join you on dual lessons (when your instructor is in the plane), if your instructor approves.
Recreational and sport pilots may carry only one passenger at a time. Private pilots and above may carry as many passengers as the aircraft is legally approved to seat, as long as the flight remains within all performance and weight-and-balance limitations.
If you’re training for a Private, Sport/Recreational, Instrument, or Multi-Engine Certificate, you’ll most likely learn in a two- or four-seat airplane with a single engine and fixed landing gear. Most training aircraft carry two to four hours of fuel and cruise at around 100 mph.
If you don’t have access to an airplane, be sure to choose an instructor who does. You may see available aircraft types on each instructor’s listing page and use the filters on the search results page to find instructors with the right equipment for your training needs.
For Private Pilot training, we recommend scheduling 2–5 training sessions per week. This pace helps you stay on track to complete your program efficiently, even with occasional cancellations due to weather or maintenance.
If you’d like to train more frequently, many instructors offer off-peak availability in the early morning or evening—great opportunities to build additional flight time and maintain consistent progress.
Yes. Just let your instructor know your availability, and they can help create a schedule for you. One of the most common pilot training challenges is irregular or infrequent lessons. While full-immersion programs can accelerate progress, what matters most is consistency. Regular, steady training leads to better retention and smoother advancement—and your instructor will work with you to make that happen.
Not at all! All of your previous flight hours and experience still count. When you continue training, your flight instructor will review your logbook and current proficiency to pick up right where you left off. What matters most is your proficiency and flying to FAA standards.
