In a statement released on Monday January 7th Robert Meder, Board Chairman, National Association of Flight Instructors accepted the resignation of Jason Blair from the position he has held since May 2008.

Leaving was a difficult decision, Jason Blair said, "because I've invested my heart and soul in its mission, but resigning offers the best possible future for the organization and myself. I fully support the mission of NAFI and hope the association and its members can find a way to continue the growth of the association and eventually return to a point where the position of an executive director is financially sustainable."

A statement released from NAFI officials says, “We greatly appreciate Jason’s service on behalf of NAFI and its members. (…) NAFI again wishes to thank Jason for his tireless service and dedication to both the association and to the aviation community as a whole.” The board plans to name an interim administrator and is putting together a search committee to begin the process of finding a new Executive Director.

In the aftermath of significant restructuring, and economic downturn at NAFI and across general aviation “Plane Talk” will probe deeper into the future of GA.
