Title:
Getting a Good Aircraft Checkout
Topic:
Getting a Thorough Checkout in an Aircraft Make and Model You Have Not Previously Flown.
Brief Description:
For our April EAA Chapter 92 meeting, our speaker, John Mahany, will discuss what’s involved in getting a good aircraft checkout. There are many things to consider now, depending on the aircraft, and how it's equipped. The goal is, what’s required to get a good, thorough check out, from an experienced and knowledgeable CFI, in a different make and model aircraft than what you have flown before, so that you will be a good, safe, competent pilot.
