Vance Breese
Cleared for Takeoff
He came to me with no gyroplane flying experience and after 3.6 hours of dual and 6.4 hours of ground instruction over two days I felt he was ready to take the practical test for Private Pilot, Rotorcraft, Gyroplane.
He is an ATP with over 18,000 hours and has a helicopter rating.
He is a very quick study and a joy to instruct.
Some of his military transport and airline experience was not directly applicable and it had been ten years since he flew a helicopter.
As you can imagine I have been on pins and needles all day.
I got a text from him this afternoon. “Passed the ride. No problems. Thank you.”
I am very proud of him and feel it is a CFI milestone for me.
WooHoo!
