On selected Saturday mornings, there's a free cup of coffee for you at EAA Chapter 54's home, and now you can get a head start on your biennial flight review through the Wings program. Member Bob Collins is now on the FAAS Team, which allows for the awarding of credit under the program when watching Laura Hermann's excellent Saturday morning webinar topics. Members are required to attend for at least 50 minutes to get Wings credit.
The objective of the WINGS program, especially at the Basic Level, is to address the primary accident causal factors that continue to plague the general aviation community, and in such a manner as to suggest mitigation strategies to avoid those accidents
Pilots need not accomplish the flight review requirements of 14 CFR part 61.56, if he or she has satisfactorily completed any Phase in the WINGS - Pilot Proficiency Program since the beginning of the 24th calendar month before the month in which that pilot acts as pilot in command.
