Administration (FAA), the International Helicopter Safety
Team, and the Helicopter Association International

standards can be recognized. Accordingly, to qualify, a minimum of
50% of the activities submitted by applicants must be helicopter
related.
The new MCFI-H acknowledges an individual's continuing
professional growth and involvement in a broad spectrum of aviation
endeavors while recognizing an ongoing commitment to excellence,
professional growth, and service to the aviation community. In
