Generally, I’m a nice guy!  Follow these guidelines and your training and time spent with me as your flight instructor will be a success and enjoyable for both of us!  Thank you for your understanding and consideration.  I want you to have the best experience, and in order to provide that to you, you need to be dedicated and prepared.

Thank you,

Stefan

1.  Be on time. Early is on time, and on time is late.  If you’re going to be late, by even a few minutes — send me a message or give me a phone call!

2.  Have your weather briefing and W&B for the plane we are flying done and ready to go.  If you can’t figure something out, message me ahead of time.

3.  Be dressed for success.  This means professionally and appropriately, even for Part 61 — even with high summer temps, the airplane is not a gym — it’s a classroom and I am your teacher.  Conservative shorts and full length t-shirts is acceptable.

4.  Have a notebook/paper and some decent pens with you for ground lessons as well as flight lessons.  It seems simple, but you’d be surprised how many people don’t bring this.  You’re paying a lot of money for your flight training, you should probably take notes.

5.  I tell my students to make flash cards.  Make flash cards!  I’ll even buy you a pack.

6.  I take notes with the intention that you will read them — read them, and spend some time studying the things I give you for homework.  I promise it will help you succeed.

You’ll achieve your goals if you stay focused and committed to your success.  Let’s go fly!
