The Greater St. Louis Flight Instructors Association promotes aviation safety and improvement of flight instruction by increasing education, instructor knowledge, professionalism, and techniques.
This is accomplished through the exchange of ideas and techniques between instructors, developing effective communications and/or liaison with the FAA and/or other desirable aviation interested entities. We deliver ideas and techniques by sponsoring the Ed Blue Flight Instructor Scholarship, FAA Safety Clinics, FAA Wings Programs, an FAA approved Flight Instructors Revalidation Clinic and other Seminars.
FIRC
This is a unique clinic professionally presented by Aviation Seminars, Inc., the leaders in aviation education. Their syllabus is continually updated with the FAA to incorporate the latest information in an interactive setting. Of particular interest will be the new rules that affect the revalidation and reinstatement of our Flight Instructor Certificates and the concept that our newly issued certificates will no longer have an expiration date. They will be more in line with currency as harmonized with our other pilot certificates.
Aviation Awards Banquet
The GSLFIA and the FAA host the annual Aviation Awards Banquet during which St. Louis’ finest aviators, instructors and volunteers are honored by the community for their dedication to aviation, education and professionalism. GSLFIA and FAA awards will be presented and a special Keynote Speaker will entertain the attendees.
