| I will verify your FAASTeam Wings Program accomplishments
and that will qualify for your flight review. The Wings Program has
been simplified considerably from the previous Wings Program and is an
excellent method for accomplishing Flight Reviews.
The Wings
Manual and Advisory
Circular AC 61-91J give excellent detail on how the new
Wings Program works. The short version is:
- You sign up for the
FAASTeam Wings Program
- You accomplish three on-line courses.
- You note the flight items the Wings Program assigns
you and demonstrate these to a CFI to PTS standards.
- The CFI signs off your Wings program and that covers
your Flight Review.
Why use the Wings Program for your Flight Review?
- Have you ever wanted to go fly, but wondered where to
go, or what to practice? The Wings Program will provide you a
list of challenges to work on during the 2-year period -- that's much
more fun than a $200 hamburger.
- The goal is to stay sharp -- not get sharp once every
two years.
- It's not the goal, but you "could"
demonstrate all the required maneuvers in one flight if your time is
running short.
- You don't have to pay for ground school time with a
CFI because you do the ground school over the internet.
- You know what to expect during the dual.
- It's not just a square filler, it is a method to have
fun, learn, stay safe and stay sharp.
- The CFI has a specific plan on what you will
demonstrate.
