Several of FlightSafety International’s facilities in Europe, Canada and South America have received approval from the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to provide a fingerprinting service for foreign pilot flight-training candidates. A number of U.S.-based FSI facilities also have this approval. After an approved non-U.S. FSI location fingerprints flight-training candidates, it sends the fingerprints to the National Air Transportation Association for processing and submission to the TSA. Foreign pilots must be finger-printed to receive training in the U.S.
