If a Flight Officer position is in your focus for the future, now is the time to attend a seminar that will be held on December 3rd . The GSLFIA and Trans States Airlines will be providing a seminar at their training facility on 11495 Nav Aid Road in Bridgeton Missouri on December 3rd. Meet the “Standards” group who will provide you with a glimpse of what life will be like during training once you are hired by an airline. Watch for times and additional information through the FAA SPANS notices from FAA Safety.Gov along with posters at your local airport or call the GSLFIA at 618-514-2647.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the recent gift of the Edward Blue CFI Scholarship. This generous gift has allowed me to pay down some of the debt acquired in furtherance of my CFII rating.

I had somewhat of a late start to my aviation career, taking my first flight at the age of 33. I was immediately enamored and never looked back. Having a background in construction, I was able to finance a large portion of initial training from my savings, but also accrued a large amount of debt in the quest for CFI certificate. With a full-time career, it was a difficult decision to switch paths to a career as a CFI. Through the tutelage of some amazing instructors and my family, I was able to make the transition.

Every day, I now look forward to imparting my knowledge to the next generation of aviators, not only to make them safer, but to hopefully show them the wonders and joy of aviation that has changed my life. Thank you again for allowing me into this awesome community of wonderful people.
Blue skies and soft landings,
