Close the Gaps the Cockpit Can't Fix

Professional remote ground instruction with active airline pilots. Master the theory, procedures, and decision-making that separate competent pilots from hour-builders.

Five Ways We Turn Screen Time Into Skill

Professional remote instruction that closes knowledge gaps and builds confidence

One-on-One Ground Instruction

Problem: Textbooks don't talk back and group classes move too slow.

Outcome: Connect complex theory to real-world application with an instructor who flew the line yesterday.

Specifics: Deep dives on aircraft systems, weather theory, chart review, or regulations.

Pilot Certificate: All

Checkride Prep

Problem: Your DPE won't grade you on a curve, and you know where you're weak.

Outcome: Walk into your oral exam with the quiet confidence of someone who's already been grilled by a professional.

Specifics: We target the most common checkride failures and verbalize procedures until they're automatic.

Pilot Certificate: All

CFI Training & Mentorship

Problem: Knowing the material isn't the same as being able to teach it under pressure.

Outcome: Learn to teach with the structure and clarity of a seasoned instructor, ready for any question the DPE throws at you.

Specifics: Practice your teach-backs on stalls, airspace, and risk management until your delivery is unshakable.

Pilot Certificate: CFI, CFI-I, MEI

Flight Planning & Weather Strategy

Problem: You're stuck in a rut of familiar routes and fair-weather flying.

Outcome: Build go/no-go decision-making skills on par with a dispatcher, ready for complex cross-countries.

Specifics: Second set of eyes on your flight planning and weather strategy.

Pilot Certificate: All

Home Simulator Coaching

Problem: Your home sim feels more like a game than a professional training tool.

Outcome: Turn your hardware into a high-fidelity platform for practicing real-world IFR procedures and flows.

Specifics: We'll help you configure your setup and run you through instrument scans, approach flows, and emergency handling.

Pilot Certificate: Student, Private, Instrument Rating

Find Your Flight Plan

Select the track that matches your mission. All sessions are one-on-one.

Student / Private Pilot

Best for: The student pilot tired of feeling behind the airplane and fumbling on the radios.

We'll work on:

  • Nailing radio communications so you sound like you belong there.
  • Setting up your EFB (ForeFlight) for clean, professional workflows.
  • Building a study plan that actually connects ground knowledge to your next lesson.
Expected hours to oral-ready: 4–8 hours

IFR Student Foundation

Best for: The pilot starting their instrument rating who wants to build airline-style habits from day one.

We'll work on:

  • Mastering G1000/G3000 logic before you're behind on payments to a Hobbs meter.
  • Structuring approach briefs that are disciplined, concise, and complete.
  • Understanding lost-comms procedures and alternate requirements beyond rote memorization.
Expected hours to oral-ready: 6–10 hours

IFR Rated Refresh / IPC Prep

Best for: The IFR-rated pilot whose currency clock is ticking louder than their directional gyro.

We'll work on:

  • Running challenging IFR scenarios and approaches to knock the rust off.
  • Deep dives on tricky hold entries, non-standard alternates, and plate nuances.
  • Rebuilding your instrument scan and EFB discipline for single-pilot IFR.
Expected hours to oral-ready: 2–8 hours

Commercial & CFI Candidates

Best for: The pilot stepping up to professional standards who needs to be graded as an expert, even when new.

We'll work on:

  • Articulating complex topics like common vs. private carriage and aircraft performance limitations.
  • Achieving total fluency with the Fundamentals of Instruction (FOIs).
  • Delivering crisp, confident lesson plans and teach-backs that will impress any examiner.
Expected hours to oral-ready: 4–10 hours

The Fine Print:

Remote instruction is a powerful tool for knowledge and proficiency. However, this time is not loggable toward any FAA certificate or rating and does not substitute for time in an aircraft or an approved AATD.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. While home simulators have limitations, they are exceptional platforms for procedural training. We can coach you on G1000/G3000 workflows, instrument approaches, and emergency checklists, saving you hundreds of dollars before you get in the real aircraft.

It's the reality of the job, but it's rare. Our schedules are managed meticulously. If an instructor is assigned a trip, we will notify you immediately and work to reschedule at your convenience or pair you with another one of our airline pilot instructors. Your time is valuable, and we treat it that way.

Our policy is built for flexibility and fairness. You can reschedule or cancel for a full refund with more than 24 hours' notice. Changes made between 6 and 24 hours of the session incur a 50% rescheduling fee. Cancellations or no-shows within 6 hours are non-refundable, as we've already reserved your instructor's time.

Yes, if you want to maximize value. We'll send a pre-session questionnaire to understand your goals, current proficiency, and specific areas of weakness. For simulator coaching, we'll ask about your hardware and software setup. Come ready to engage, take notes, and ask questions.

No. Per FAA regulations, remote instruction cannot be logged as flight training time and does not count toward certificate or rating requirements. However, it is an exceptionally cost-effective way to build knowledge, procedural discipline, and decision-making skills that will make your in-aircraft training more efficient.

If you have a specific aviation training need, reach out. We've coached pilots through everything from airspace confusion to multi-engine aerodynamics. If we can help, we will. If we can't, we'll point you in the right direction.

Stop studying like a student. Start training like a professional.

Book a remote session and experience instruction that respects your time, challenges your thinking, and prepares you for real-world aviation.
