Pilot Check Rides
I’ve administered check rides for over 35 years; as an air carrier Check Airman, an FAA Inspector, and a Designated Pilot Examiner. I conduct check rides for Private Pilots, Commercial Pilots, Instrument Airplane Ratings, Airline Transport Pilots, and Flight Instructors.
Administrative Certifications
I also provide administrative certifications for; Flight Instructor Renewals; Ground Instructor; Military Competency Conversions; Second-in-Command Type Ratings; Supervised Operating Experience, and many others.
It's my goal to assist you with your airman certification.
