NAFI Announces PPN Agreement

NAFI and the Pilot Proficiency Network (PPN) have formed an agreement to benefit NAFI members and general aviation. The PPN creates a community of pilots who share information to promote safety and proficiency. The PPN concept brings together IFR-rated pilots who fly in real-world IMC and those who don’t. PPN fosters camaraderie and provides an opportunity to share stories, network with the broader pilot community, and to practice critical decision-making processes. Additionally, flight instructors will have the opportunity to offer their services by accessing potential aviation clients and students.

As an exclusive offer to NAFI members, PPN is offering a $100 discount and a free print copy of Becoming A CFI by Radek Wyrzykowski to NAFI members who wish to create a local PPN chapter or register an existing group, such as a flying club or aviation association, to gain access to PPN resources.
