January, 2012 SSF FIRC in the Washington, DC area

The Soaring Safety Foundation will present a Flight Instructor's
Revalidation Clinic in the Washington D.C. area on the weekend of
January 21 and 22, 2012. The clinic will be held at a nice venue in
Gainesville, Virginia. This site should be convenient for those who
live in the Washington, D.C. area. It is about half an hour from
Dulles
airport for those who wish to travel by air. Lodging is available
nearby.

The clinic will be presented by Rich Carlson of the SSF and
other speakers. The clinic will cost $150 which goes to the SSF to
support future clinics and other SSF activities. There is still
time to sign up for this clinic.

The clinic will run from about 8 AM to 5:30 PM on Saturday, Jan 21 and
8 AM - 5 PM on Sunday. At the end of the clinic, your instructor's
certificate will be re-validated on site without your having to go to
a FSDO as in years past. The clinic is valid for renewal of multiple
types of instructor certificates -- glider, airplane or helicopter.

The clinic is not only for instructors - all pilots are welcome, .
The
information presented will be very useful to those working toward a
CFI certificate and pilots with private or commercial certificates.
interested in flight safety.

If you wish to attend the clinic, please respond to - James C.
Garrison, SSA Director, Regions 2 & 4 to register. Respond by email
