<p>Recently I've been receiving a good deal of e-mail inquiring about the status of scheduling and prices for mountain flying courses for this summer.  Here are the specifics...</p><p>Normally I operate these classes from Eagle Colorado, however I'm in <span id="lw_1174969153_1" style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed">Albuquerque, NM</span> for the summer working for Eclipse Aviation.  As a result, all mountain flying courses for this summer will depart from and return to Albuquerque Double Eagle Airport (KAEG) with a planned overnight in Colorado (probably Grand Junction).</p><p>The course changes slightly with each student.  I customize it for the equipment a student is flying, as well as the students specific goals and experience.  The <span id="lw_1174969153_2" style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed">Albuquerque</span> scenario changes the course slightly.  Normally we would fly from Eagle and return to Eagle each day.  The way I have been operating the course recently is to leave <span id="lw_1174969153_3" style="BACKGROUND: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed">Albuquerque</span> Saturday AM from AEG (double eagle airport) and return to AEG Sunday afternoon. As we fly north from <span id="lw_1174969153_4" style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed">Albuquerque</span>, <span id="lw_1174969153_5" style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed">Taos</span> and Angle Fire provide excellent mountain experience at hot temps and high density altitude.  Then we fly a route that takes you through a variety of Colorado's mountain airports including <span id="lw_1174969153_6" style="BACKGROUND: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed">Aspen</span>, Steamboat, Eagle, Salida.  We overnight in <span id="lw_1174969153_7" style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed">Grand Junction</span>, the next day we progressively work our way back to <span id="lw_1174969153_8" style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed">Albuquerque</span> via <span id="lw_1174969153_9" style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed">Leadville</span>, Telluride, Durango. </p><p /><p>If you would like to setup a mountain flying course, we can make the appointment for almost any weekend, and I may be able to accomodate other days depending upon what your schedule requires.  If you're using your own airplane, then the course is $495 for 16-20 hours of instruction (2 full days).  The $495 covers the instructor expenses for the overnight.  </p><div>If you have questions or want to get on the schedule for a mountain flying course this summer please call or e-mail me.</div><div></div><div>Blue Skies...</div><div>Loren French</div><div>505-301-7837</div><div><a href="mailto:mountaincfi@yahoo.com">mountaincfi@yahoo.com</a></div> 10 application/xml false Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727) 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 lorenfrench false true false false true 81303 blog blogsite/MountainCFI/web
