What are the rules nowadays for getting your CFI? Is a commercial
rating required before you can become a CFI? I imagine it is, since
you're "flying for hire"...?

Come-on Jay, I thought that you were an English Major.
It's a "commercial certificate", not rating, and CFIs
don't "fly for hire", they "instruct for hire". :-)

True enough , but doesn't "for hire" carry the implication that some actual
money must change hands? :-)))
