Incumbents Rewarded With Another Term
The Society of Aviation and Flight Educators (SAFE) recently
announced results of its annual election to fill three seats on its
Board of Directors. Incumbents Tom Benenson, John Dorcey, and Donna
Wilt were re-elected to three-year terms. Benenson has been
involved in aviation education for 35 years and writes
training-related articles for Flying magazine. Dorcey has
experience in aviation maintenance and airport management, and has
been involved in K–12 aviation education for 25 years. Wilt
is a collegiate faculty member and head of a flight training
department, and spearheaded the development of SAFE’s
Aviation Educator Mentoring Program.
"We had a field of nine exceptional candidates running for the
Board, undoubtedly making for some tough decisions by our members.
But the membership has spoken," said Governance Committee Chair
Mark Adams. "We thank all of the candidates for their desire to
further improve SAFE’s standing as a World Class
organization, and we congratulate the three Board members on their
reelection."
The Directors will commence their new terms at the annual SAFE
member dinner meeting held during AirVenture. SAFE is currently the
only organization representing instructors and other aviation
educators where the entire Board of nine Directors is openly
elected by the membership. Terms are staggered, with three seats
expiring annually.
