Blue Goose Aviation
Instrument Course
Why is a concentrated instrument training course desirable? You receive consistent, in depth instruction. You will retain information better with deeper understanding. You will complete your license and be able to use your use your privileges in two weeks. Many pilots may complete the instrument rating at their local FBO. However, most pilots start then stop then restart their training. This behavior leads to much higher costs and retraining. Often students never finish their rating. If you have already started your instrument rating already, how long have you been in training? How close to completing are you? Are you ready to consider an option to complete your rating in two weeks? Then a concentrated course to which you can fully dedicate your time and effort is the answer. But what is the optimum length of time for a concentrated course that is effective and does not overwhelm the student. Consider the two examples below: Blue Goose Aviation Other Instrument Company
We tailor the course to your schedule and needs. We will set a plan with you prior to arriving at your airport. Now we may have to change some plans due to weather or other circumstances but will try to stay to our set plan. We can meet you at your airport or we welcome you to join us here in Colorado for your training. A typical course has us flying the first seven days at your local airport and training on our portable simulator. Then we plan on a three day cross country so you see different approaches and weather patterns. We will work with you where you would like to go. This makes the training more like the way you are going to fly when you receive your rating. Then we will work on the checkride profile for the next three days and the last day will be your checkride. We can work this to stay in your area the whole time if you would like or we can work to do more cross-country training with approaches away from home. Like this paragraph started we will tailor it to your needs and training. Items you the instrument client need to due to be ready for the course: Ø Have your written test completed and still valid when our instructor shows up for your course. Ø You the pilot should be current ü Current Flight Review (We can cover this if we need to, but add an extra day) ü Current medical certificate ü Current Passport (For TSA Reasons, if you do not have one talk to us on other options) Ø Your aircraft must be flyable ü Current Annual Inspection ü Current pitot static check ü Current mode C transponder check ü Instruments capable if flying actual IFR ( If you plan on getting actual time). Ø Study Materials - Once you sign up for the course we will send you a: ü Text book to read prior to our instructor arriving at your airport. ü The Instrument Oral Study Guide which also needs to be read prior to our arrival. (We will go over questions in this oral every day during training). ü The Instrument Practical Test Standards. Cost comparison:
$ Special #1-If you sign up to take this course at one of our three convenient locations (Colorado Springs, CO. or Polson, MT.) we will drop the travel and motel cost. The total course would be $4000.00. * We will book our own motel reservations. The other company has you book and pay their reservations so the $100 a day is an approximate it may be more or less for the hotels in your area. * Rental Car – Our instructors will not need a rental car or one of yours cars. Please pick us up to fly each day and drop us off at our hotel and we will make our own arrangements fro everything else. The other company demands a rental car or one of your cars for there instructor the entire course. * Books we use Max Trescott's GPS and WASS Flying, Dugans Instrument Flying, Instrument Oral Guide, and the Instrument PTS. ** Checkride costs are that of the client at the price of the local designated examiner. While our course is still intense with a lot of learning going on it is not totally overwhelming like a 10 day course. Payment: We accept Paypal or personal Checks.
