I was just commenting on flying club policies. Club bylaws
often set a ratio or pilots to instructors, so clubs are
always looking for instructors to join. Thus waiting
periods often don't apply to instructors. Some clubs have
other rules, such that, say, The Cessna Employee Flying Club
does have some instructor hired to run the club and other
instructors to teach within the club, but all are Cessna
employees first as their primary job.

Cessna club does not allow non club affiliated CFI to
instruct in the club airplanes, but their policy is still to
do the 100 hour inspections, whether for dual or solo
rental, AFAIK.
