Default CFI training cost?

Hey, don't tell me that you never heard of the guy here in Wisconsin that
cushioned his crash with a Cheesehead hat! Just think if he would have had
a blow up doll with him! Nooo problem!

If you work on your Commercial from the right seat, it will probably

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 ;-)
