Nope I'm not a CFI. And when I finally get my sport pilot instructor
certifcate I won't be any closer to a CFI. The difference in requirements is
considerable.

Thanks for replys I've gotten so far. I'm located in St Marys GA just
over
the border from Florida.

I need to qualify what I am looking for a little more. I have the
opportunity to do tailwheel checkouts but I need an instructor rating.
The
simplest way I can do that is to be a sport pilot instructor. The
practical
test is the same as the sport pilot with a little instructor tasks added.
I've got plenty of time logged and I've passed both the FOI and sport
knowledge tests. The one guy I know in Ga who is a designated examiner
doesn't do sport pilot.

Are you already a CFI?
