Default CFI training cost?

If you work on your Commercial from the right seat, it will probably save
you some money on your CFI. If you can do most of the flying in a
inexpensive fixed gear and then do the required maneuvers in a complex, that
also may save you money. But, most of the CFI work will be
ground/desk/classroom/lesson plan and teaching work, not flying. Much of
this work will be done by yourself or practicing on willing victims, empty
chairs, stuffed animals and or blow up dolls, so this will not be expensive.


.... Unless you're caught with the blow-up doll, in which case you may
have some 'splainin to do ;-)
