'A Reminder Of The Responsibilities That CFIs Have When It Comes To Flight Training Providers'
The TSA, along with the FAA, has transmitted a 'reminder' message to Certificated Flight Instructors about they consider to be their responsibility in regards to flight training providers. Even if you're not a CFI, it makes for interesting reading...
On September 20, 2004, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) issued 49 C.F.R part 1552, Flight Training for Aliens and Other Designated Individuals; Security Awareness Training for Flight School Employees. This regulation requires aliens seeking flight training to submit specific information to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in order for DHS to determine whether or not the individual is a threat to civil aviation or national security; requires flight training providers to verify that an individual is a U.S. citizen, U.S. national, or a U.S. Department of Defense endorsee prior to providing flight training; requires initial and recurrent Security Awareness Training for certain designated individuals; and prohibits flight training providers from providing flight training to individuals who have been identified as a threat to civil aviation or national security.
According to Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) records, you are listed as a Certificated Flight Instructor (CFI) under 14 C.F.R. Part 61. This letter is to remind you of the requirements outlined above that may be applicable to the flight training you provide, and to let you know whom you may contact should you have any questions.
