My business partner, David Koehn, recently renewed his Master CFI accreditation, a fantastic accomplishment. One of only 5 in the state, I am working on my certification as well.

David A Koehn, a 4-time Master and SAFE member, recently renewed his Master CFI accreditation. David is a co-owner of Destinations Executive Flight Center ( DestinationsEFC.com ) and co-founder of Fast Forward Aviation at Tulsa's Richard L Jones Riverside Airport (RVS). Additionally, he serves as a FAASTeam representative in the FAA's Oklahoma City FSDO area.

Master Instructors LLC takes great pride in announcing a significant aviation accomplishment on the part of David A Koehn, the owner Destinations Executive Flight Center and resident of Tulsa, Oklahoma. Recently, David's accreditation as a Master CFI (Certificated Flight Instructor) was renewed by Master Instructors LLC, the international accrediting authority for the Master Instructor designation as well as the FAA-approved "Master Instructor Continuing Education Program." He first earned this national professional accreditation in 2003, has held it continuously since then, and is one of only 55 worldwide to earn the credential four times.

To help put these achievements in their proper perspective, there are approximately 93,000 CFIs in the United States. Fewer than 700 of those aviation educators have achieved that distinction thus far. The last 14 national Flight Instructors of the Year were Master CFIs while David is one of only 8 Oklahoma teachers of flight to earn this prestigious "Master" title. In the words of former FAA Administrator Marion Blakey, "The Master Instructor accreditation singles out the best that the right seat has to offer."

The Master Instructor designation is a national accreditation recognized by the FAA. Candidates must demonstrate an ongoing commitment to excellence, professional growth, and service to the aviation community, and must pass a rigorous evaluation by a peer Board of Review. The process parallels the continuing education regimen used by other professionals to enhance their knowledge base while increasing their professionalism. Designees are recognized as outstanding aviation educators for not only their excellence in teaching, but for their engagement in the continuous process of learning -- both their own, and their students'. The designation must be renewed biennially and significantly surpasses the FAA requirements for renewal of the candidate's flight instructor certificate.
