About

Your instructor

My interest in aviation started on my first commercial flight. Looking out the window, I knew I wanted to be up front. Since then I've logged over 500 hours, more than 200 of them teaching other pilots.

I believe good training is about judgment, not only procedures. Every lesson is built around your experience, your aircraft and the flying you actually want to do, so the skills carry over to real flights after the checkride.
