flight training 3
Your calm demeanor, tremendous knowledge, and proven system, coupled with your great dedication and personality made flying easy and fun! I can't wait to come and see you next year, my skills have already improved exponentially, thanks to you!!!
Don Fletcher. Louisville, KY
I owe my RC flying skills to you and your progressive and insightful series of classes. I was very disenchanted with my club instructor's techniques and the progress I was making before I signed up for the primary flight course. I was very impressed with your approach to learning and learning to solo in only 3 days.

Thanks to your training, I'm enjoying flying instead of trying to keep up with the plane. The really amazing thing was that it seemed so easy. On my return, all of the instructors were amazed at the progress I had made. Even the "General" speaks to me every now and then. Thanks again for making flying a fun hobby.

The bottom line for any service is did you get your moneys worth and was it worth the time? The answer to both is definitely yes. I will recommend the school to new students.
John O'Keefe. Springfield, IL
As more time passes I reflect on the super duper time I had in your class! You are a real pro. The school was the best $---- I have ever spent!
Rachel Hall. Berkeley, CA
I gained the knowledge to know how to correct errors, and yet has also instilled the "fun" into the hobby. Your additional input on equipment, engines, fuel, maintenance, etc. will be very helpful and cleared the air of a lot of misunderstood information. Your school has gotten me off the ground in the right way.

I was extremely impressed with your approach and methodology to Primary Flight Training. I now realize that with attention to consistent patterns and ground references, there is no need to get into a situation where a crash can occur.
Jeff Wallach. Dallas, TX One club member stated that I must be rich to be able to go to Dave Scott’s flight school, but as I see it, I’m saving money by going to the flight school.
Ron Francis. Clarksburg, ONT Two guys in the OFC took me up for my wings test and I passed! I'm on my own, thanks to your splendid instruction. My wife thinks the 1st US RC Flight School was the best investment I ever made.
Doug Crowne. St. Agatha, ONT I want to tell you that coming to the school was one of the best decisions I've ever made. The way you built the training made it easy. Your true concern and support for how well I did gave me a confidence I still have today.
Edward Smetak. Houston, TX I just wanted to say thank you for your great instruction. I flew three solo flights one week after your school! I am so excited to finally have independence from the buddy box! Thanks to your instruction I am no longer afraid to fly! Dale Smith. Ann Arbor, MI Each time I have flown since the class, I have been able to improve because of the proper basic training. When I make a mistake, they have not been catastrophic thanks to now knowing what I did wrong, correcting properly, and how to perfect my technique.
Jim Hahn. Birnamwood, WI I learned more after the first two flights at your school than I had in three years at my club.
Neil Reynolds. Peterboroug, ONT My flying continues to go very well. My landings are crisp or as some say "greased.' All the result of your training at the Primary school.
Jim Klass. Lewiston, NY You would not believe how many guys are amazed at how fast I have progressed and are now asking me if I want to fly their airplanes! What a terrific testament to your training! Bob Kohler. Cedarburg, WI I had five flights with good landings my first time out after the School. One fellow yesterday wanted to know how long I have been flying. I told him a week and he was kind of shocked at the ease of my flying. I told him I attended your school and he was impressed. Dave, it was automatic for me, very little thinking just action (not reaction). I am so excited to fly, each flight was a little better, smoother and automatic.
Michael Pad. Bloomfield, MI 7/18. I am pleased to announce that after flight school I went to the field and flew four solo flights. The club instructors were amazed as to how I could do such landings. I confessed and let them in on our secret of the approach. The club "diehards" were still not convinced until later that day when we ended up with about 20 mph winds and I took off and landed with no difficulty. They were amazed as this would have been deemed a "no-trainer day". I know it would have taken me years of club instruction to have advanced to where I am.
7/20. Went out again yesterday and had a great day at the field. I now have 2 other novices using the same system and they improved immediately. Tony Graham. Jasper, AL Now when flyers hear that I have been to aerobatic flight school they always ask if it helped or if it was worthwhile. I cannot be more positive about my experience to other flyers. There was no other way for me to advance my skills so quickly. I am not sure any amount of time would have helped this much. I think differently about flying. I no longer react to what the aircraft is doing. I anticipate what to do and control the plane. My flying is improving and I am having more fun flying aerobatics than ever. Ken Weddell. Fremont, MI I cannot express how much you've helped me gain confidence. That first day when you had me fly in 20 mph winds, I would not have believed it unless I had tried it myself! Michael Anthony. Naperville, IL I still can't stop telling people what a wonderful learning experience you have put together for the RC student. Ed Bleske. Pewaukee, WI The club examiner wanted me to do 3 take-offs and landings to receive my wings.....I did more than 20! Thanks for the great week in Wisconsin and for the skills and confidence to solo!
Ron Capstack. Harrisonburg, VA It was extremely windy when I was finally able to get our chief flying instructor to the field. However, having high winds all week at your school proved to be advantageous as I achieved a total score of 87 out of a possible 100 and therefore received my wings.
Neil Robertson. Peterborough, ONT I just wanted to let you know that my flying is going very well and has caught the attention of the local field club members. They continually comment on how well I control the plane and can’t believe that I’ve only been flying since May with just a week of instruction. Several flyers even ask me for tips from time to time. I do, of course, refer them to your school and manual. Thanks again. Paul Darland.
