Short Field Course
Monadnock Aviation is pleased to offer a Short Field Course beginning Saturday May 14th. Whether you have a specific short field that you would like to access or are just looking to hone your aviator skills, this course can help.
The course is designed to begin with a group lecture (approximately 3 hours on May 14th) discussing short field techniques, weather and density altitude, and other flight planning factors. Our Redbird LD simulator will be used to demonstrate techniques.
Following the lecture (either the same day or soon thereafter), we will offer flight instruction to pre-selected short fields to practice your technique. We can tailor the fields to your needs, whether it be the seacoast, New Hampshire or Vermont mountains, or Connecticut and nearby coastal areas. Your flight experience can be a private or you can cut the flight cost by flying dual with another "student". The flight portion of the training will provide for up to 4 hours of flight time in our Cessna 172 and more can be arranged on an individual basis.
Intrigued? Here's information from AvWeb to whet your appetite and refresh on the techniques you'll need for this course.
The cost for this course is $850 for individual flight time or $450 for dual flight time and includes 7 hours of instruction (3 lecture and 4 flight) as well as Redbird LD simulator use, and use of our Cessna 172 (wet).
For those who choose to do the flight portion individually, it can also serve as a Flight Review and an aircraft checkout in N5136C for your future flight use. ( It is possible that we can complete the training in your aircraft. Email me and we can discuss the details of that situation.)
Please contact me with any questions or if you are ready to reserve your seat.
