A fortunate CFI will be awarded the second NAFI/King Schools Scholarship for Certificated Flight Instructors. The scholarship, which is to help flight instructors further their education and training, is valued at $18,000, including access to the entire King Schools library of courses for life.

King Schools and the National Association of Flight Instructors (NAFI) share a deep appreciation of CFIs. King Schools Co-Founders John & Martha King, in a statement said, “NAFI and King Schools understand that flight instructors are the key to creating pilots that are truly ready to be pilot in command. Our organizations are passionate about preparing CFIs for that awesome responsibility and this scholarship will help the winner advance both their CFI ratings and knowledge."
"Working with King Schools has led to many benefits for our members, including product discounts and access to free courses," said NAFI Chairman Robert Meder. "We are thrilled to also give our members the opportunity to receive this scholarship. The future winner will be very happy.”
The NAFI/King Schools Scholarship includes $5,000 in cash for the attainment of advanced instructor ratings plus free lifetime access to the entire King Schools course library, including FIRCs.
