I Have Trained Numerous Future RVers

63% of the pilots I have trained are professionals; airline and military pilots. They understand the benefit of RV transition training for their safety. One of these pilots stated, “Every time I flew a new aircraft I spent many hours of training; this is the most important airplane in my life, my personal airplane, I could not see flying it without proper training.”

I have over 2,900 hours of RV time; began giving flight training in 1991 in the Chicago Area, and have been a Van’s insurance-preferred RV flight trainer since 2001. My first RV was completed in 1998. I did not anticipate that my wonderful flight machines would end up being used as a tool for others’ flying safety.

Aviation has been a big part of my life. I previously served as an FAA Check Airman and Flight Check Pilot, evaluating and testing instrument approaches to ensure they met FAA standards. Before that, I spent 22 years as an Air Traffic Controller at the Fort Worth Center.

Transition training isn't a full-time job for me; it's truly my passion. I genuinely enjoy sharing my experience and expertise with other pilots. Helping them build their skills, gain confidence, and become safer pilots is what makes it so rewarding for me.

Here is what one pilot said:

 Alex,  I just arrived home from the training we did today.  I really appreciate your approach to instruction.  I intentionally did not tell you today that I am a CFII for two reasons.  The first was that I did not want to influence your evaluation of my flying (being a CFI means that I am suppose to be able to teach not necessarily be an ace pilot!).   The second was that if I did perform poorly I did not want to be doubly embarrassed.  I have taken a lot of flight training and given some too.  In my experience with flight instructors I would put you up at the top. 

I really appreciate the way you look at the safety of the flight.  Upon completion of the training I feel perfectly comfortable flying an RV-6 or RV-6A (I am building a 6A as you know).  We both realize that flying is a continuous learning process.  Your instruction was an excellent transition from the world of Cessna flying to the world of RV flying.  I appreciate the clarity of instruction and the good judgment you displayed. 

I highly recommend your transition training.
