Next Workshop Will Take Place At Sportys Academy
Our friends and 'Airborne-Flight Training' news partners at SAFE, the Society of Aviation and Flight Educators, are preparing a major aero-education event this summer. According to SAFE, "Professional development is essential in aviation. And there is something for every aviation educator at our CFI-PRO Workshop, next at Sporty's Academy June 10/11, 2020. Whether you are new to aviation education (even working on a CFI) or a seasoned veteran, this learning opportunity will reinvigorate your teaching and accelerate your mastery and proficiency with new ideas and techniques."
While SAFE is still configuring the agenda for the June event, previous workshops presenters have included as many as five FAA National Award Winners)... so do understand that these events are staffed by folks with right kind of background and knowledge to make you a better pilot and instructor.
SAFE also adds that, "This workshop will also include a catalog of 'Extended Envelope Maneuvers' designed to rebuild basic skills and move pilots out of their narrow (and dangerous) 'comfort zone.' The majority of pilots only fly (and train) in less than 10% of the flight envelope. These limited pilots are vulnerable to LOC-I when displaced by an emergency or upset. DPEs also see fewer student pilots familiar with turning stalls (a standard maneuver available in the private ACS) on checkrides. We know this comes from their CFIs. We need instructors learning and spreading 'Extended Envelope Maneuvers' to expand their proficiency and confidence thereby reducing LOC-I accidents."
The 2-day course costs $375 and includes lunch and a networking dinner.
