What to get your CFI?

I need to do something to say thanks to my CFI, but I can't think of any
grand ideas. I really feel bad for not having to pay him much for
instruction. I'm going for my exam at 41hrs.

If you think he did a great job, give him a tip. If you can't afford what
you feel he's worth, tell him so.

See if you can find out his or her hobbies and pick up something related. The
guy who gave me my tailwheel checkout was building an Air Camper and into other
types of mechanical ventures. I bought him a socket set, IIRC.

been looking for it.

Booze and/or loose women. Makes 'em happy every time!

If it is just the CFI, tickets to a concert go down well.
In my own case, many people in the flight school had helped me, so I had
a caterer take everyone lunch with a card of thanks.

Unfortunately, I'm not old enough to buy the booze, and he's happily
married.

Congrats Slick! I bought lunches for mine on many occasions after most
flights. When I got my ticket, I took two of my CFIs out to Outback,
good thing they weren't Vegets.

Well, if you live anywhere near Iowa, I know a certain aviation theme-suites
hotel that happens to sell gift certificates...
