Default FAASTeam members?

You need to complete their training program to be a FAASTeam member, this is
the same as the previous "Aviation Safety Counselors". Just signing up, does
not make it so. You need to attend some of those safety seminars with them
and review their materials.

They like people that are good public speakers, have a good knowledge of
safe operations and have a good relationship with other pilots in the area.

Their website is so vague that I honestly don't know. 2 years ago at OSH
I
talked with several FAA Safety Counselors at the FAA Building. They
showed
me the beta version of the FAASafety website and signed me up. I've been
getting notifications on local FAA Safety Seminars, new web resources,
online courses and such ever since.


Hmmm. I've been getting those notices since that time, too. I don't
think that makes us "FAASTeam members", though -- but I could be
wrong.

I've found the online courses and resources useful and have passed them
on
to students and fellow pilots.


I'll have to check them out. Thanks!

Ah... now that makes more sense.
Thanks.

You mean they actually want people who don't use Sectional Charts to
tell others that they should use them? :-))

Small nit here. There is a difference between a FAASTeam Member and a
FAASTeam Representative. As I understand it, the member does NOT give any
presentations but rather assists the FAASTeam reps or helps out in other
ways. It's only the FAASTeam Reps who are allowed to give presentations.

Of course, if you like giving presentations, it's great! I've given
several and have learned SO much. Write me privately if you have further
questions

And yes, it's a great team to join!
