SAFE: New Master CFI Portal Ready For Action

New Website Has A New And Easier Submission Portal

The Master Instructor Program, which officially affiliated last month with SAFE (the Society of Aviation and Flight educators), has opened a new website and made submitting applications easier for prospective Master Instructors.

"As strange as it may sound, the FAA never created a continuing education recognition program for aviation educators," explained David St George, SAFE Executive Director.

"The Master Instructor Program, created by Sandy and JoAnn Hill in 1997, is now part of SAFE, and provides this essential motivation and recognition for professional educators in all parts of aviation."

This Master Instructor Program new website has a new and easier submission portal. "If you are a busy professional educator, you probably already have all the experience to qualify as a Master Instructor!" said St George, who added that industry recognition and program benefits of a Master Instructor easily cover the cost of application.

SAFE's CFI insurance gives a 10 percent discount for Master Instructors.

Master Instructors are what FAA Administrator Marion Blakey once called "the best the right seat has to offer" in aviation.

FAA Administrator Randy Babbitt also has addressed an assemblage of SAFE Masters as the "movers and shakers of the flight training community."

Studies show that earning Master Certificated Flight Instructor credentials adds to aviation community recognition, respect and business.

According to St George, himself a 12 time Master CFI, annual savings on aircraft insurance for MCFIs more than pays the Master Instructor application fee.
