The MCFI achievement is a national, FAA recognized accreditation earned through a rigorous process of continuing professional activity and peer review. The accreditation must be renewed biennially and signifies a true commitment to excellence and safety of flight operations. Master Instructors LLC relates, “Simply put, the Master Instructor designation is a means by which to identify those outstanding aviation educators, those “Teachers of Flight,” who are demonstrating an ongoing commitment to excellence, professional growth, and service to the aviation community.”
“Safety must be the foundation for truly effective and comprehensive Upset Prevention & Recovery Training (UPRT), and highly qualified expert pilots are the cornerstone of that foundation“ says Paul BJ Ransbury, president of Aviation Performance Solutions. “The achievement of MCFI-A status, along with extensive background experience and unmatched in-house UPRT-specific training ensures our pilot training goes well above and beyond what is recommended by the FAA in multiple advisory circulars, and by ICAO in their Manual on Aeroplane UPRT, ICAO Doc 10011, which reiterates that a well-qualified instructor is the most essential component in the delivery of effective UPRT.”
ABOUT THE MASTER INSTRUCTOR DESIGNATION
The Master Instructor designation is a national accreditation recognized by the FAA. Candidates must demonstrate an ongoing commitment to excellence, professional growth, and service to the aviation community, and must pass a rigorous evaluation by a peer Board of Review. The process parallels the continuing education regimen used by other professionals to enhance their knowledge base while increasing their professionalism. Designees are recognized as outstanding aviation educators for not only their excellence in teaching, but for their engagement in the continuous process of learning — both their own, and their students’. The designation must be renewed biennially and significantly surpasses the FAA requirements for renewal of the candidate’s flight instructor certificate.
