In this packed episode, we cover critical changes and tools shaping the future of flight instruction, certification, and aviation safety:

• MOSAIC Final Rule Released – Sport Pilot regulations get a massive overhaul. No weight limit, four seats, night flying, and even Private/Commercial pilots flying on a driver’s license.

• What It Means for CFIs – More students, new flight school opportunities, and faster instructor pathways. But what will insurance companies say?

• FAA Part 141 Reform Tiers – A four-tiered system is being proposed with scalable privileges and qualifications—good news for small flight schools.

• UND’s NGAFID Tool – Any school can upload flight data (G1000, ForeFlight with AHRS) and privately analyze safety or performance metrics with automatic triggers.

• FAA Handbook & Test Updates – Major handbook revisions and knowledge test changes are coming to reflect new FARs under MOSAIC.

• ProTips – Two-tier lesson planning, smarter IFR alternate filing, and how Starlink satellite phones can boost your off-airport survival strategy.
