JLS Aviation accepts applications for flight instructors at
any time. Hired flight instructors are independent contractors and enjoy
flexibility in terms of scheduling and off time. Each flight instructor
is asked to complete a written contract with the Flight School outlining
procedures and expectations. In general, the Flight School is looking for
instructors who have integrity in their personal conduct and in the
application of flight instruction standards and practices. Flight
instructors can work on full time or part time basis. Scheduling is
accomplished through an on-line scheduling system that affords students
an opportunity to schedule both an aircraft and an instructor for a given
time period. The one requirement is that each instructor must train at
least one student toward a license or rating each year.
Compensation for flight instruction is rewarded based on two
important criteria. First, pay is adjusted for the amount of time an
instructor actively teaches. Second, pay is further enhanced by
establishing a track record of completing student training and achieving
a high percentage of first-time passes on practical tests.
All instructors are asked to complete an initial check ride
in a Flight School aircraft, and if successful, may then teach students
seeking appropriate ratings in that make and model of aircraft. Check
rides are then conducted annually, or in additional aircraft or for
additional privileges as desired by the instructor. Each instructor is
expected to apply and teach the course syllabi published by Jeppesen,
Inc, and to adhere to the standards established under CFR Part 141.
Additional courses are available from the school for courses not covered
by Jeppesen. The Flight School continually receives requests from
prospective students for flight instruction. The Chief Instructor assigns
students after considering availability, experience and other relevant
factors. Instructors are encouraged to recruit students independently and
may then retain those students for instructional purposes.
Applications or questions regarding employment should be directed
to either the Chief Instructor, Jim Stover. An Instructor
Application is available for downloading.
