Hey guys,
One of my students asked me the other day if we could fly anywhere, where would it be? Well, I've always wanted to learn how to fly in the mountains. To my surprise, he said, "okay, let's do it! We'll even do it in my plane!" In slight shock and excitement, I agreed to look into it! So what the proposition is would be to take about 3 days and head to Colorado. I could give him dual out and back in his Turbo 182 but both of us would like to learn the ups and downs of navigating through the mountains, weather, etc. I'd like to find a flight school/Reputable Instructor who has a lot of experience and would be willing to fly with us. I don't have to fly, I know how to do that already, but the knowledge and experience would be valuable to me as well as him. Maybe a day rate Instructor vs. hourly. So, I'm curious if any of you have had some great experiences with any particular company, instructor, destinations, etc.
Thanks,
Tristan
