In conjunction with the annual AOPA Aviation Summit last week, AOPA arranged the Flight Training Summit — a meeting with flight instructors and industry representatives to introduce AOPA’s new field guides to flight training, get ideas for initiatives for the Center to Advance the Pilot Community and announce the winners of the organization’s new training awards.
More than 100 participants attended the meeting. After senior vice president of the Center to Advance the Pilot Community Adam Smith briefed the attendees on the goals and plans of the newly established center and Brittney Miculka, manager of prospective pilot and youth outreach, introduced the field guides, the attendees were divided into four focus groups.
