FAQs
MUST I PAY MY DEPOSIT TO SECURE MY START DATE?
Yes. Your Ground School Deposit of $2,000 must be paid to secure your class start date.
MUST I COMPLETE MY FIA AND FOI WRITTEN TESTS PRIOR TO MY START DATE?
Yes. Failure to complete these Written Tests could result in course cancellation. In which case, your Ground School Deposit may not be refunded.
MUST I PURCHASE THE CFI LESSON PLANS FROM wifiCFI?
No. These lesson plans are optional for your Checkride. However, we will send you downloadable lesson plans once your Ground School Deposit is paid so you can begin studying.
WHAT IF I NEED MORE THAN 10 HOURS OF FLIGHT TIME?

WHAT IS YOUR CHECKRIDE PASS RATE?
The National Average Pass Rate for the CFI Initial Checkride is close to 50% (this is a very difficult Checkride). However, wifiCFI boasts a Checkride Pass Rate of 80%! This is due to our strict enrollment processes, industry experience, top notch lesson plans, endorsement runner scenario, and more.
