flight training 4
I had absolutely no apprehension at all and flew the plane like you taught me. Like you said, losing an airplane is unacceptable. The check pilot found it difficult to believe that my total experience was one week and that I soloed in three days, but he said "you don't need my help at all."
Bill Voss. Grand Rapids, MI I flew all day Friday after the course and greased 9 out of 11 landings. Saturday I flew with an old friend who was amazed at my improvement and overall confidence. I showed him a few things that you taught me and he improved immediately. Jeff Wallach. Dallas, TX I often think about our sessions notwithstanding the dramatic impact on my flying. I now CONTROL what happens by not always reacting. I anticipate what is going to happen and put in the correct inputs for things before they occur or when they occur.
Jim Procrass. Beverly Hills, CA I just got back from my first contest. I flew the Sportsman Routine in 15-25MPH winds. Without practicing since training with you, I placed second and had a blast. Todd Siegel. Freehold, NJ I'm now thinking ahead about where I want the plane to be rather than reacting to unintentional consequences. Thanks for helping me to evolve my skills so I may enjoy a hobby that has been my life long pursuit. Mike Anthony. Naperville, IL It was a wonderful week, filled with more accomplishment than I could have imagined. I now have a repertoire to practice and master that will keep my flying days full for many years. Doug Crowne. St. Agatha, ONT I can not thank you enough for your ability to take what look like very difficult maneuvers and break them down and stretch them out into easy segments and then bring them back together. I no longer stand back and look in awe at well flown aerobatics but have to ability to understand how maneuvers are performed and I am transferring that knowledge to my own sticks. My life long dream is now coming together! Ron Francis. Ontario, CAN You are not only a great teacher, but a very dedicated professional who knows how to inspire your students to "reach for the sky". Michal McClure. Lake Forest, IL My brother and I are both very pleased with our progress throughout the week long session. We have, and will continue to recommend your flight school to those looking for this type of concentrated, personal attention in sharpening their skills. Gary Smith. Springfield, IN Each time I take one of your courses I think I've learned just about all there is to learn. Then, you show me a whole new level of flying. I continue to be amazed by your expert tutelage. Ed Smetak. Kingwood,TX My flying is getting better and better every day. I attribute that directly to the foundation I received from your excellent training. Ed Petterson. Export, PA Thanks to your instruction I'm able to anticipate the maneuvers and what corrections to make to do them better. I'm amazed by how quickly I’ve progressed. You have an amazing way of teaching the basics and also stressing the finer points to achieve perfection without making it a grueling task. Jim Hahn. Birnamwood, WI The school has allowed me to become an R/C pilot that can perform a complete routine with confidence and competence. The school has been invaluable. Melvin Johnston. Manitoba, CAN You will be pleased to know that back home I have put your manual and school knowledge to work. My rudder control is improving with every flight, and "yes", I'm staying ahead of the airplane. Thanks for all your help, and saving my reputation at the field. Tony Biach. Silver Cliff, WI I can honestly say that I have never been more satisfied with any investment of my time, energy and money than I am with the training provided by your school. In my analysis, the return on investment will continue to accrue for as long as I am active in the sport. Bob Kohler. Cedarburg, WI Apparently you have built a business using proper flight instruction methodology-i.e.-a SYLLABUS---something unheard of a local fields. Just as in full size flying - proper instruction (making the airplane do what the PILOT wants it to do as opposed to accepting whatever the plane wants to do and sorta guiding it around) is the only way to learn consistency. I find your program truly worthwhile and would recommend it to aspiring modelers. Phil Sibille. Nats, Top Gun, & Masters Champion 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 Dave relayed some new ideas about control. By the third day I wasn't even looking at the plane, just where it was heading. I didn't need to know WHAT the plane was doing because I KNEW what I had told it to do. Flying was actually becoming FUN. Dave Healy. Medford, OR Each time I attend the school I'm even more impressed by how clearly you organize the lessons and how easy you make it to learn. Now, thanks to you, I feel I have the foundation to do just about anything with practice. Robert Yeager. Casper, WY I'm now flying in much stronger winds than before the course, in order to practice serious rudder corrections. Right now, I actually look forward to windy days more than quiet ones. Got to love this hobby. Bela Ballo. Gates Mills, OH I flew yesterday for the first time since the flight school. I'm certainly "over the hump" and I now feel comfortable flying in any attitude. Lou Sardella. Sparks, MD I went up for the first time since taking the class. I am happy to report that I landed the Dirty Birdi for the first time, and I have been trying forever to land this thing. Yesterday, I landed it like it was nobody's business. Louis Holt. St. Louis, MO My flying buddies joked, "Why would you pay money for a flight school when you can fly here for free?" However, my first time back at the club field a buddy commented that I was having a good day, and my regular flying buddies wanted to know what happened. I had not been capable of flying like this two weeks earlier. My last flight finished with a knife-edge pass across the field and cheers upon landing. Ken Weddell. Freemont, MI The day I got back from the Basic aerobatic class one of the really good Pattern guys asked, 'WHERE did you learn to fly like that? That is something I almost never see in this Club!'. I told him my heritage with the DAS system, and he just smiled and said......good, we have another Pattern guy in training! Jeff Wallach. Dallas, TX
