Licence there....I understandcweather more now; with ref to aviation, than any course i dud previously. I am a visual learner and cannot just learn from black and white txt books, like the UK.
      If you teach CPL ground school, please can i have yr companys details? Would be interested.

I looked at the high pressure and low pressure areas and looked at them like gears or screws in a supercharger moving the air along. Now I see how the winds aloft are generated and how you can take advantage of a deviation to get there faster! So cool! Thank you!

If someone isn’t comfortable with talking to ATC practice practice practice because nothing is scarier for a Controller and other pilots around when someone comes into an airspace that isn’t familiar with using the radio or just fails to make simple radio calls.

Do recommend that students walk into flight training with the written completed and passed. Can you do a video on the pros and cons of doing this or perhaps provide any feedback? Thanks

    • @WalterAviationInc
      @WalterAviationInc  7 лет назад

      Great idea for a video, and until we make that video, our recommendation is to definitely get your written test passed as soon as possible. Not only will you have a working knowledge of the terms, components, and systems, but as you begin your actual flying your rate of learning will be much higher. We recommend this to all of our applicants.
