Outside of his university position\, he is active as an independent consultant and educator serving flight instructors and as the owner of a small flight school. An active flight instructor since 2009\, he has provided more than 5\,000 hours of instruction in more than 30 aircraft types. A 7-time NAFI Master Flight Instructor\, he currently serves as NAFI President and coordinates the MentorLIVE program. \n\nSponsor \n\n\n\nThis MentorLIVE presentation is sponsored by Avemco.  \n \n  \n\n\n\nRegister For Event\n\n\n
