Approved status is defined by a leadership code of "A" on the monthly membership listing and the issuance of a membership card that does not reflect the word "temporary". The only exception to this policy is for FAA certified flight instructors participating in National special activities. These individuals must have received their "temporary" membership card and completed Cadet Protection Program Training prior to the start of the activity; however, the in-person supervision of an "approved" member is not required during periods of dual flight instruction or orientation flights where the cadet is accompanied by one of these instructor pilots.
