What is the WINGS Program?
• Pilots who maintain currency and
proficiency in the basics of flight will enjoy
a safe and stress-free flying experience
• Requirements for each aircraft category and
class include subjects and flight maneuvers
specific to that category and class
– To ensure pilots receive a well-rounded learning
experience, only certain flight activities fulfill specific
flight credit requirements

What is the WINGS Program?
• The objective is to address primary accident
causal factors
– Especially those that continue to plague the general
aviation community year after year
• By focusing on this objective, we expect to
reduce the number of accidents we see
each year
• It is not a simple “Award” program, but is a
true proficiency program
– designed to help improve our skills and knowledge
as pilots

Why?
• 30 ft. of airplane is
now just 3 ft!
• What would lead a
VFR pilot into IMC
conditions?

Procedural Errors
• Slips, lapses, and
mistakes in the
execution of
procedures
– Skipping items on a
checklist
– A distraction that
causes the pilot to fail
to extend the landing
gear, or not to extend
it in this case

• Pre-established
habits?

General Aviation Accidents
• The reasons pilots have accidents have
remained largely unchanged over the years
– Human error remains
the greatest factor in
aircraft accidents and
incidents
– These mistakes are
made by all types and
experience levels
of pilots,
• Including Instructors

Summary
• We encourage flight and ground instructors
to give more attention in two major areas
1. Proper preflight planning, with an emphasis on
performance and limitations, and
2. Transition training
• In addition, designated pilot examiners
should test the 1st area more thoroughly
– which will further emphasize that topic’s importance
The WINGS – Pilot Proficiency Program
Federal Aviation
Administration
27
Summary
• Do pilots who participate in the WINGS
Program have better safety records because
of the additional training they receive?
• Is their safety record a result of their
intrinsic interest in aviation safety?
– Their subsequent participation in the WINGS
Program is then a natural result of that interest
• Does the WINGS Program help make
already safe pilots safer?
The WINGS – Pilot Proficiency Program
Federal Aviation
Administration
28
Summary
• Pilots who participate in the WINGS
Program are, as a group, involved in
substantially fewer accidents than their
peers

Section 3
• How is the WINGS Program structured?
The WINGS – Pilot Proficiency Program
Federal Aviation
Administration
30
Levels and Phases
• There are three Levels
– Basic, Advanced, and Master
• A Phase within a Level consists of six tasks
or activities
– Three Knowledge Activities, and
– Three Flight Activities
• A pilot may earn as many phases in each
level as he or she desires
– Each phase requires the completion of an additional
six tasks or activities
The WINGS – Pilot Proficiency Program
Federal Aviation
Administration
31
Basic Level
• A recurrent training program
– Provides pilots a higher level of proficiency than
merely preparing for a typical Flight Review
• Because the Basic Level addresses primary
accident causal factors, every pilot is
required to complete a phase at the Basic
Level at least once every 12 calendar months
– This ensures pilots are aware of current accident
causal factors and possible mitigation strategies
The WINGS – Pilot Proficiency Program
Federal Aviation
Administration
32
Basic Level Standards
• The Basic Level requires use of the Private
Pilot Practical Test Standards (PTS)
– or the PTS for the pilot certificate held, whichever is
lower
• This includes Sport and Recreational Pilot Certificates
• Pilots in the WINGS Program must
demonstrate proficiency to the same
standards required at the certification level
The WINGS – Pilot Proficiency Program
Federal Aviation
Administration
33
Accident Causal Factors
• Aeronautical Decision Making
– Including Runway Safety Issues
• Performance and Limitations
– Including Loss of Control Issues
• Preflight Planning, Risk Management, and
Fuel Management
• Takeoffs and Landings
• Positive Aircraft Control
– Including Loss of Control Issues
• Basic Flying Skills

Advanced and Master Levels
• For pilots who want a training and
proficiency program that take them a step
above the Basic Level
– Higher proficiency standards are required
• These Levels afford the pilot an opportunity,
in concert with an instructor, to tailor the
training to fit more specific needs
– To complete a phase of WINGS at the Advanced or
Master levels, a pilot must simultaneously complete
or already hold the level just below
The WINGS – Pilot Proficiency Program
Federal Aviation
Administration
36
Advanced Level Standards
• The Advanced level requires using the
Commercial PTS
– or the Private PTS when there is not a
Commercial PTS,
– or if the pilot completed the Basic level by using
the Sport or Recreational PTS, then the Private
PTS is used for this level.
The WINGS – Pilot Proficiency Program
Federal Aviation
Administration
37
Master Level Standards
• The Master level requires using the
Commercial and Instrument Rating PTS or
the ATP PTS
– if one is available for the category and class of
aircraft used
• In addition, some activities refer to tasks
from the Certificated Flight Instructor (CFI)
PTS
• A Light Sport Aircraft (LSA) cannot be used
at this level
The WINGS – Pilot Proficiency Program

38
How Are WINGS Credits Assigned?
• Professional judgment is used in determining
whether an activity meets the requirements for
WINGS Credit, and
– a few straightforward requirements are indispensable
The WINGS – Pilot Proficiency Program
Federal Aviation
Administration
39
How Are WINGS Credits Assigned?
• The major topic of the activity must
normally fall into one of the topics we
discussed above
– They cover primary accident causal factors

How Are WINGS Credits Assigned?
• The major topic of the activity must normally fall into one of
the topics discussed above
– inasmuch as they cover primary accident causal factors
• The length of the presentation or activity will be considered
– generally, an activity consisting of at least 60 minutes of instruction earns one
credit
• Educational value, such as accuracy and the depth of
discussion or demonstration, will be reviewed
– Generally, material must be presented to a level of understanding consistent
with that of at least a Private Pilot (or Recreational or Sport Pilot, as
appropriate for the intended audience), and
• The activity or presentation must cover the material in
sufficient detail
– so that by incorporating a renewed understanding of the subject matter into
their flying habits, or using a reacquired aeronautical skill, pilots can be
assumed to have lessened the possibility of a potential accident
The WINGS – Pilot Proficiency Program
Federal Aviation
Administration
43
How Are WINGS Credits Assigned?
• Pilots who demonstrate a specified level of
knowledge and/or proficiency
• Incorporate such skills and knowledge into
their flying habits
• Will mitigate these topics as accident causal
factors

• What are the benefits of participation?

45
Benefits of Participation
• Completion of any Phase of WINGS
satisfies the requirement for a flight
review
– 14 CFR 61.56(e)
• Some insurance companies offer a
premium discount for participation
– As much as a 10% discount
• Participating pilots really are safer pilots
– As demonstrated by a study comparing
accidents by WINGS pilots vs. non-WINGS pilots

Why Should You Participate?
• Every pilot must participate in some kind of
recurrent training program
– Especially General Aviation Pilots!
• Feel more confident
• Increase your safety margins
• Develop an ongoing relationship with a CFI
or training facility
• Increase safety margins
– Prevent the cost of aircraft repairs, medical costs,
increased insurance premiums, and personal
embarrassment following an aircraft accident

Some “Rules” of the
WINGS Program
• Three Knowledge credits
– Online Courses –
• Review any time, but only once every 90 days for credit
– Seminars
– 3rd Party Activities , Seminars, and Webinars
• Three Flight credits
– Not necessarily three flights
– Not necessarily three hours
• All credits must be earned within a 12
calendar month period
The WINGS – Pilot Proficiency Program

Administration
80
Some “Rules” of the
WINGS Program
• What does Current mean?
– A phase earned within the previous 12 calendar
months
• Credits only fill certain slots
– For example, a Knowledge Topic 1 credit cannot fill
a Knowledge Topic 2 credit requirement
• Plan to get your WINGS and keep them for
your entire pilot career
– This is ongoing - not just a one time event like a
certificate or rating

– Credit validated by another Instructor
– The pilot requests credit and a “Validator” validates
that credit request

CFI Renewal Based on WINGS
1. Hold a flight instructor certificate that has not expired,
