Common Questions
- How do I find flight instructor work?
- Sign up with the work you do, your ratings and the aircraft you fly or work on, and set your home airport and how far you’ll travel. New jobs that match you show up in Find Work and can be sent to you as alerts. Apply to the ones you want and agree the rate with whoever posted it.
- Can I teach in a student’s own aircraft?
- Yes. Owners often post training in their own aircraft. Add the types you teach in so those jobs reach you.
- Can I take a break from new students?
- Your profile has an Accepting Work switch. Turn it off when you’re busy and you won’t be matched or sent new offers until you turn it back on.
