Expect focused instruction, meaningful time in the airplane and a training experience designed to make the most of your time.
frequently asked questions
About Our Flight Training And Plane Rental
-
Our specific courses require very experienced, talented instructors, who often fly in other capacities. However, to offer a superior client experience, we make our instructors fully available for the day to you. This also gives us flexibility with weather and creates a custom experience.
Also, more experienced pilots typically have more capacity for the half or whole day, as opposed to the typical 2 hour lesson block. This maximizes the learning retention needed for the endorsements.
-
Yes! To accompany the recommended textbook for the Tailwheel Endorsement, we have developed a maneuvers companion guide for our Citabria 7GCAA. We will also provide a .pdf of the legal AOM for the Citabria.
For the Spin Endorsement, a review of commonly available stall/spin material is adequate, along with the above guides.
We have a similar guide for the PA32 we will provide to our select renters. All of the avionics in the PA32 are industry common and manuals are available online from their respective manufacturers.
-
As you may imagine, weekend days go quickly and may need to be scheduled well in advance.
However, weekdays are more available and can often be had with just a couple of weeks notice. Just make contact to see how we may accommodate you.
-
Absolutely! About 10 minutes from the airport, the Rock Hill area is central to many hotels and restaurants and a half hour from Charlotte Douglas International Airport.
We would be happy to assist with local transportation while you complete your course.
-
The endorsements we offer have fairly open ended regulatory requirements.
This gives us wide latitude in how we accomplish them. The fields we chose, difficulty, approaches, conditions, maneuvers are largely up to you!
Bring your goals and ideas and we can highly likely accomplish them while meeting the endorsement requirements.
-
Quite simply, it is keeping our circle small.
We are offering a total of 5 spots to highly qualified pilots renting our PA32. This keeps our rental cost as low as possible, while offering an outstanding, hugely capable aircraft that is significantly more available than your typical rental.
