FAA WINGS Program A Special Opportunity for All Pilots WINGS is an excellent way to gain proficiency. What is WINGS? WINGS is the FAA Pilot Proficiency Award Program designed to encourage general aviation pilots to continue their training. It provides an opportunity to practice selected maneuvers in a minimum of instruction time. WINGS is an excellent opportunity for you to re-evaluate your flight proficiency and knowledge. If You're a Pilot, You're Eligible WINGS is open to all pilots holding a recreational certificate or higher with a current medical certificate, when required. After you've logged three hours of dual instruction under the program and attended at least one FAA-sanctioned safety seminar, you will be eligible to receive and wear a distinctive set of WINGS. You will also receive a certificate of completion. Pilots Your attendance at this safety seminar fulfills one of the requirements of the Pilot Proficiency Award Program (WINGS Program). Completion of the requirements of the WINGS Program, as outlined in Advisor Circular 61.91H, will qualify you to receive a WINGS lapel pin and wall certificate. Additionally, if you satisfactorily complete a phase of the WINGS Program within the period specified by Section 61.56 of the Federal Aviation Regulations, you need not accomplish a biennial flight review. More Wings to Work For Each twelve-month interval after earning your first set of WINGS, you will be eligible for more WINGS. Each WINGS pin is specially designed to mark your additional progress. WINGS -- The Sign of a Safe Pilot It's a fact: recurrent training makes a difference. Statistics show that pilots who participate in recurrent training programs such as WINGS have a much better safety record than the pilots who do not. Earning your WINGS could have a positive impact on your aviation insurance costs. Be sure to inform your insurance agent of your commitment to the Wings Program.
