Medallion Flyers: Getting Started

Interested pilots begin by submitting an Online application to the Medallion Foundation, which then issues the applicant a copy of the FAA “Back to Basics – Runway Safety” program in CD format. After reviewing the CD, pilots will be notified of the next Step II Orientation Course in their area. Pilots who attend the class are provided a copy of the King Schools Risk Management course on CD as well as other applicable material.

The Step II Orientation classes are designed to establish a Personal Safety Program, facilitate hazard assessment, implement Risk Management techniques, and enable participants to take advantage of the benefits offered by free access to the Medallion Foundation's state-of-the-art Aviation Training Devices (ATDs). Once this training is completed and initial participation requirements are met, pilots are designated Active Participants in the Flyer's Program.
