Advanced VFR Training

Many examiners conclude a successful private pilot checkride by saying something like, ‘you now have a license to learn’. It’s great aviation maxim and certainly worth putting into practice. Aviators should always be learning, improving their skills and broadening their experience. If you hold a private pilot certificate, you might think about some advanced training tailored to your flight experience and individual needs. A few examples include:

Improve your communication skills, especially in busy, crowded airspace
Develop real expertise using ForeFlight
Get a better handle on aviation meteorology
Night Flying
Grass Airstrips

We’ll design a program to suit you needs.

We’ll do a thorough flight review per 61.56. Here is the guideline we use.
