 Training: Instructor Certification
Here is the full Ratings program, including
instructor.
There is much need for instructors. Our hope is that this will
provide some standardization so new students (and experienced pilots) will have
a common gauge to start with when seeking instruction. We strive to support the instructor community by encouraging
thorough training which can only help preserve the freedom we enjoy under FAR
103. This freedom carries significant responsibilities to continue using the
airspace system.
Instructors are able to administer the ratings of USPPA PPG1
through PPG3 as described on the appropriate ratings page. Instructor
Administrators are authorized to grant Instructor ratings.
An instructor who is authorized to administer the ratings will
be listed on the schools page
as USPPA/USUA approved.
Instructor administrators can give instructor ratings and are listed below.
Requirements for an instructor applicant are listed in the ratings PDF file and
include a clinic. The process for a PPG3 rated pilot to
become an instructor is to contact an existing USPPA instructor administrator and ask to do
a clinic. Once complete you will be able to apply.
If you are a USHPA,
Instructor pilot wanting to obtain the USPPA Instructor Rating please send your
request to theUSPPA@gmail.com stating your name,
phone number, address and organizational number. Your request will be forwarded
to the training committee member for processing.
Grand fathering Instructors
We recognize the accomplishments obtained through
other organizations and so have provided a means for existing instructors to
certify under USPPA.
Be a full~ or higher member of USPPA in good standing. The
certification is only in effect while the membership is in effect. Have all the flight experience listed for a
USPPA
instructor. Have passed the PPG1, PPG2 and PPG3 written tests. Pass the USPPA Instructor written test. Submit an application with signed liability release and
commitment. The
commitment lists instructor expectations and asks that when giving USPPA training the applicant will adhere to the
minimum training standards. Instructors are, of course, free to give
training outside of the program but if a student is getting a USPPA rating then this applies.
Submit this information to a USPPA Instructor Administrator as
listed below. The official list is maintained through our online membership
system.
