Brief Description:
With the ability to fly through the clouds, and fly in various weather conditions; the opportunities for an instrument pilot are endless. Pilots with this qualification can fly to more places at ease, but not without training and preparation.
San Carlos Flight Center invites instrument rated, private pilot Travis Bender to provide an overview of his Instrument training experience, and what to expect for any pilot interested in obtaining the rating. In this seminar, Travis will highlight the different ways he studied for the written exam and prepared for the FAA checkride. Bender will show how various resources such as flight simulators, chair flying, and listening on the radio helped him excel through his training.
If you are interested in obtaining your instrument rating, join us for this unique opportunity to learn more about what the training entails, and how one pilot succeeded.
Travis Bender is a private pilot with an instrument rating in airplanes, and an Upwind Scholarship alumni, who learned to fly at SCFC. An avid adventurer, he loves flying to new areas and discovering fun places to fly. Travis currently attends the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma, Washington, when he is not in the air.
