Traditionally, a master class is given by a recognized expert in a field — usually music, but also painting, drama or any of the arts — to students who are themselves advanced practitioners of the art, but who, for professional reasons, are anxious to improve their own capability. The ‘masters’ provide advice and often examples from their own experiences.

A flight instructor refresher clinic (FIRC) sponsored by NAFI (National Association of Flight Instructors), ASA (Aviation Supplies &, Academics) and Sporty’s turned out to meet all the requirements of a true master’s class.
