airline style routes.

 Want
to finish your IFR Rating in 7 days?
If you're interested in getting your
instrument
in 7 days, this is the program for you. There are no gimmicks to
this, its hard work, and requires your full concentration. However,
when
you're
finished, you'll have gained solid experience in the real world of IFR.
You will receive at least 30 hours of one-on-one flight
instruction
on some of the most challenging instrument approaches in the South
East.
You'll fly at least 25 approaches during the program, many with SID's
STAR's
and holding patterns. You'll be astonished at how much you will
learn.
When you are not in the air, you will learn techniques that will
simplify
otherwise complex procedures such as procedure turns, holding pattern
entries
and many others.
Don't spend 9-12 months and $15,000 to
$20,000 on your instrument rating! Condensed training experiences
will not only save you money, the intensity guarantees that the
lessons
last a lifetime. Your training is accelerated and less time is
spent
reviewing the last lesson... a real money saver. None of the
other
accelerated programs provide the comprehensive, high quality learning
materials:
the Oral Exam Prep Kit and the Instrument Rating Pre-Checkride Review
workbook. Demand more, and get the best instructor for
accelerated training.
The three-day IFR
Adventure is an integral part of the seven day IFR rating training
and
guarantees
a unique training experience and adds up to a true flying adventure
that
will make you a more knowledgeable and confident pilot. We
integrate
the IFR
Adventure into the course not only to
meet
certain instrument rating requirements, but
also
to serve as a real world capstone experience which increases your
confidence
in the IFR system. Read about Accelerated
Training Programs in the reading library.
What if you want a slower pace than a 7 day instrument
rating training course? A 10-day program is available at a
slightly higher
cost.
If you are considering any flying career (airlines, flight
instruction), consider getting your mult
add-on to your private, then doing your instrument rating in a
multi.
For a small incremental cost, you can be building multi time while
doing a rating you're going to need anyway. It lowers your over
all
cost to get into an airline career.
I do the
IFR rating training for multi students as a 10-day program for the same
cost as
a 7-day program. If you are interested in a career with the airlines, read Why You Should do Your Instrument Rating in a
Twin.
Six Reasons to Choose This Program:
- This is a quick, efficient, structured training
program to
get you
through
this training with minimum pain, maximum quality.
- We constantly evaluate our competitors to ensure that
our
program
provides
the highest quality at the most reasonable cost in the country...
compare
for yourself. We're not beat by anyone.
- You are PIC for the entire program receiving PIC
credit in
your logbook
for 100% of the flight time.
- Safety: techniques for safe instrument flight
are
emphasized by
your
instructor.
- Personal attention is provided as you progress
through your
training program.
You'll never wonder about your progress. You will
never
fall through the cracks.
- The chief instructor has been a teacher since 1996,
is a
Master
Instructor (NAFI), Advanced Ground Instructor rated (FAA), a Gold Seal
Certificated Flight Instructor (FAA), an Aviation Safety Counselor
(FAA), and a former airline pilot. Your instructor is a highly
qualified ATP-rated, FAA Gold Seal, NAFI Master instructor
with 100% pass rate. None of the other local providers use an
instructor of this calibre.
