GS 501
Instrument Instructor Ground School
This course is the aeronautical-knowledge contract for the Flight Instructor — Instrument (Airplane) rating. Ten lessons aligned with FAA-S-8081-9E, the instrument-instructor practical test standards. The student’s instrument rating uses FAA-S-ACS-8C. FAA-S-ACS-27 is powered-lift, not this test. Required reading from IFH, IPH, PHAK, AIM, and 14 CFR; the school lesson plan; then a chapter quiz at 90%. The course final is 50 questions at 80%. The testing center is 70%. FOI is not repeated here — it lives in GS 401. A CFI airplane rating does not, by itself, let you teach the instrument rating.
