Learn from a mountain flying pro and author of MountainCFI.com

Probably the most important thing to know about me is that I learned to fly in the Colorado Rockies, and I have spent the last 15 years flying and teaching extensively in the mountains.  My students fly a variety of aircraft ranging from Malibu’s to 152’s, and everything in between.  I also have a BS Degree is Aeronautical Science, was part of the engineering program for the Eclipse 500 Jet, and was formerly a Master CFI, FAA Air Safety Counselor, and a Cirrus Certified Instructor Pilot.
