Default CFII Before CFI

Odd as it may seem.......
Oh Yeh, its for helicopter......


Its not common but its certainly possible. The benefit is that you
break your hardest checkride (the CFI) into two parts. During the CFII
you will cover all the FOI stuff during the oral so when you go for
the CFI checkride it will be about 1/2 as hard. Otherwise you take a
really hard checkride with the initial CFI and then the CFII is an
easy add-on.
The downside is that a CFII can do very little. The rating is so
limited that its not really marketable.

-Robert, CFII
