Brief Description:

Want to increase your income and be in high demand? Discover how to be the CFI with whom everyone wants to fly. Become a pro and earn the respect of your peers. At the same time you can teach airmen how to fly safer and better.  CFI Professionalism - According to NTSB, there have been a disturbing number of individual incidents of noncompliant behavior, intentional misconduct, or lack of commitment to essential tasks.  What do you do to guide student behavior?  At this FAASTeam Flight Instructor Open Forum we will explore this complex topic to better prepare our students.

Mountain Flying - Whether you live near the Rockies, the Great Plains or Coastal regions ... understanding aspects of mountain flying is critically important. Learn about mountain airports, mountain waves and other key items that you can experience right here in North Carolina!

Flight Instructors, Ground Instructors, Designated Pilot Examiners, Instructors in training and ALL pilots are welcome and encouraged to attend. Join your flight instructor colleagues and take an active role in improving safety in flight training!  Click on the link below and register TODAY!
