Notes:

  1. Instructors stepping from one role to another will begin under the Sem­ester 1 pay upon starting the new role.
  2. Instructor role changes will take effect once the instructor provides evidence of meeting the FAA regulatory requirements, as well as NMC internal requirements.
  3. Lead CFIs must meet the requirements of 61.185(j) and §61.195(f) for the AME Category and Class, or §141.37.
  4. Senior CFIs must meet the requirements of 61.195(h) or have 2,500 hours and an appointment by the Department Director.
  5. Three hours of aircraft time will be provided for one of the following ratings: CFII, MEI or seaplane, provided that the instructor will be employed in that role for one full sem­ester after completion of the rating.
  6. A tuition benefit (based on NMC’s policy, % of one FTE @ 2080 annual hours) will be available for NMC courses.

Additional aviation experience may result in a request for higher placement at the discretion of the Division Director.
