Partnership and Advertising The National Association of Flight Instructors (NAFI) is an international professional association of certificated flight instructors (CFIs) and flight training organizations (FTOs). NAFI is committed to helping its CFI members improve their skills and its FTO members improve their operations in order to produce better pilots. CFIs have significant influence on a pilot s future performance and NAFI CFIs are some of the most dedicated and active flight instructors in the world. NAFI members instruct in flight schools, universities, corporate flight departments, fixed base operators and the airlines. NAFI CFIs also instruct in the military and as independent instructors. Wherever flight instruction happens, NAFI members are there. NAFI has served as a voice for flight instruction within the aviation industry and with federal agencies since 1967. NAFI staff and volunteers work with industry and government to help shape the direction of flight training. Getting your message to these important Mentors will increase your organization s visibility and influence with this key element of aviation. NAFI offers a variety of ways to do this.
