Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I find a CFI in Ohio?
- AviatorDB lists every active FAA-certificated flight instructor (CFI) in Ohio. Use the search box above to look up by last name, or browse the table to see all 2,009 CFIs registered in Ohio. Each result links to a certificate detail page showing ratings (CFI, CFII, MEI), medical class, and last issuance date. Records are refreshed monthly from the FAA's official airmen registry.
- How many CFIs are in Ohio?
- As of the most recent FAA refresh, Ohio has 2,009 active Certified Flight Instructors. The largest concentrations are in CINCINNATI, COLUMBUS, DAYTON, WESTERVILLE, and MEDINA. Ohio ranks #10 nationally for CFI count.
- Are these Ohio flight instructor records current?
- Yes. AviatorDB syncs the FAA airmen registry monthly, so Ohio CFI records reflect the most recent official update. Individual instructors may have made certificate or rating changes since the last sync; for primary-source verification, cross-check at airmen.faa.gov.
- What's the difference between a CFI, CFII, and MEI?
- A CFI (Certified Flight Instructor) can teach private and commercial pilot certificates in airplanes. A CFII (Certified Flight Instructor — Instrument) adds the instrument-rating instruction privilege. An MEI (Multi-Engine Instructor) adds multi-engine instruction. AviatorDB lists all three under the Flight Instructors category; click any instructor's name to see their specific ratings.
- Can I verify a flight instructor's certificate directly with the FAA?
- Yes. The FAA's official airmen inquiry tool at airmen.faa.gov is the primary source. AviatorDB pulls from the same registry monthly to give you faster searchable access; for official certificate verification (employment, insurance, schools), use the FAA tool as your final reference.
