Aviation is a dynamic industry and these Aviation Safety Programs present the very latest to increase your safety and technical knowledge. These seminars present information that could expand some of the areas you already know and may even introduce some concepts that are different from when you took your first training. Aviation technology is advancing at a fairly meteoric pace, such that new procedures and methods are being introduced to users on a regular basis. Continuing education is necessary to remain abreast of the changes as they are implemented in the field. In that sense, every safety seminar holds promise for attendees. These programs are 1.5 to 2 hours in length and are taught by professionals and subject matter experts. A question and answer period allows for lively participant interaction as well as discussion of specific scenarios. Participants who hold pilot certificates can earn their FAA Pilot Proficiency Program "Wings". See faasafety.gov for more information. FAA Safety Team Representatives (Aviation Safety Counselors) volunteer their time & effort, facilities, and even financial resources to put on these safety meetings for the benefit of local pilots. Most of this activity is done without a single tax payer dollar spent. The program is always looking for volunteers. If you're interested, please contact your local Safety Program Manager at your nearest FAA FSDO. The best rationale why you should get involved: Will they go easy on me?
