To reduce the number of preventable aviation accidents, the FAA established the WINGS
Pilot Proficiency Program. Providing these courses and encouraging Pilot participation creates the opportunity for pilots to improve their skills and knowledge to create a safer flying experience.
The courses promote ongoing flight training with an authorized flight instructor. You select the category and class of aircraft you want to receive training in and demonstrate flight proficiency. In addition, the FAA provides learning opportunities such as online courses, seminars, webinars, and other events. You’ll have the ability to earn WINGS
credits by attending 3rd party events offered by AOPA, ASA, Sporty’s, and others.
