Responsibilities

The Chief Flight Instructor provides leadership, direction, and oversight of flight training operations within Delta State University’s Department of Commercial Aviation. This position is responsible for ensuring compliance with applicable Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations, particularly 14 CFR Part 141, and maintaining the highest standards of flight training, instructional quality, operational safety, and professionalism.

Reporting to the Executive Director of Aviation Operations, the Chief Flight Instructor is responsible for administering FAA-approved training curricula, supervising and evaluating flight instructors, developing and implementing standardized training procedures, and ensuring students receive consistent, high-quality flight instruction.

The Chief Flight Instructor will work collaboratively with flight operations management, faculty, maintenance personnel, and the Safety Manager to promote a proactive safety culture, improve operational efficiency, and support student progression and successful completion of flight training programs.

Additional responsibilities include maintaining required FAA training records, overseeing stage checks and instructor standardization, monitoring student and instructor performance, implementing continuous improvement initiatives, and ensuring compliance with applicable university policies and accreditation requirements, including those established by SACSCOC and the Aviation Accreditation Board International (AABI).

Salary Commensurate with experience, qualifications, and university’s resources.

Minimum Qualifications Current FAA Commercial Pilot Certificate or Airline Transport Pilot Certificate with appropriate category and class ratings; current FAA Flight Instructor Certificate with CFI, CFII, and MEI privileges; and documented flight experience and instructional qualifications meeting 14 CFR § 141.35 for the University’s applicable approved training courses.

Demonstrated knowledge of FAA Part 141 regulations, flight training operations, instructor standardization, safety procedures, and regulatory compliance. Strong organizational, communication, and leadership skills are required. Must be eligible for FAA approval as Chief Instructor.

Preferred Qualifications Master’s degree in Commercial Aviation, Aviation Management, Aeronautical Science, Aviation Safety, or a closely related aviation field. Previous experience serving as a Chief Flight Instructor, Assistant Chief Flight Instructor, Check Airman, or in a comparable aviation leadership position.

Experience managing a university or collegiate Part 141 flight training program, developing standardized instructional procedures, supervising flight instructors, implementing Safety Management Systems (SMS), and supporting aviation accreditation requirements.

FAA Airline Transport Pilot Certificate, substantial multi-engine instructional experience, and demonstrated success in developing flight instructors and improving student training outcomes are highly desirable.

Special Instructions to Applicants Applicants must submit a current résumé or curriculum vitae, copies of all FAA pilot and flight instructor certificates and ratings, and a copy of their current FAA medical certificate, if applicable. Applicants must also provide a detailed summary of their aeronautical experience, including total flight time, pilot-in-command time, flight instruction experience, multi-engine experience, and experience conducting training under 14 CFR Part 141.

Candidates should identify any previous experience serving as a Chief Flight Instructor, Assistant Chief Flight Instructor, Check Airman, or in another aviation leadership position. Applicants are encouraged to provide a brief statement describing their leadership philosophy, approach to flight instructor standardization, commitment to aviation safety, and experience improving flight training operations.

Final selection will be contingent upon verification of qualifications and eligibility for FAA approval as Chief Instructor under 14 CFR § 141.35.

Additional Information Delta State University seeks an experienced, highly motivated aviation professional to provide leadership and oversight of its FAA Part 141 flight training program.

The successful candidate will play a critical role in strengthening flight instructor standardization, promoting a proactive safety culture, improving student training outcomes, and supporting the continued growth and development of the Commercial Aviation program.
