I finished my CFI renewal via the American Flyers online course. Each time I've done this, I drive to the nearest FSDO and turn in my paperwork there. This time, I contacted the Albuquerque FSDO to make my appointment, but they told me I have to get with an examiner to get that paperwork done. They don't take walk-ins any more. I assumed that this would cost money since DPE's never work for free, so I then called the Scottsdale FSDO to make my appointment with them. They told me the same thing. My question is, are there any FSDO's that still take appointments? If I make an appointment with a DPE, will they charge me a fee? How much will the fee be?
