The Society of
Aviation and Flight Educators (SAFE), has announced the
incorporation of the organization in the state of Connecticut. SAFE
is a new organization formed to represent the nation's professional
aviation educators,
SAFE has scheduled its inaugural meeting during the upcoming
Women in Aviation International conference. The meeting will take
place on Thursday, February 26th at 1715 in the Centennial IV room
of the Hyatt Regency in Atlanta, Georgia.
According to SAFE spokesperson Doug Stewart, "Incorporation is a
big step in establishing SAFE in the aviation community and in
creating a member driven organization that will be responsive to
the needs of the nation's aviation instructors. We plan to hear
from various committee chairpersons regarding the current status of
initiatives and to discuss the charter memberships which will be
offered as soon as all the filings are complete." Following the
committee reports, a question and answer session will be held to
allow interested participants and media to learn more about the
future plans for the organization.
"Securing non profit (501c3) status for SAFE is the next big
step in our efforts to create an organization that will represent
the nation's aviation educators and Certified Flight Instructors
with professionalism, transparency, fairness and accountability."
continues Stewart.
"We are moving forward on many fronts to put programs in place,
to elect an initial Board of Directors and to begin offering
memberships to aviation educators, flight instructors and industry
partners. We are excited about the opportunity to debut our new
organization at the 20th annual WAI conference. Everyone is invited
to stop by and meet us."
