CFI renewal

Asked by: 2882 views , ,
Flight Instructor

Just curious what everyone has used to renew a flight instructor certificate.  I have heard of americanflyers.net.  I like the idea of a one time membership fee.  I have  a little less than a year to figure out how I am going to renew mine.  I would like to read your input on what you use, and pro's and con's.
