Colorado Pilots Association puts on a great, full day mountain flying
ground school in June and August. June 19 is a Saturday. This is at
Centennial Airport (APA), south of Denver. Please see the web site
at:

http://coloradopilotsassociation.org
choose 'Mountain Flying'

We try to fly the out-of-state folks the next day. The in-state folks
and the folks serious about high density altitude flying usually want
several days of flying.

For example, I teach mountain flying one-on-one year around, and for
serious Colorado Mountain Flying, I have a North, Middle and South
route laid out, flown over 3 days, with overnights in the mountains.
I also have dirt and taildragger mountain instruction available.

There are some links to writeups about mountain training, and the
Colorado Pilots Association from my web page:

This Fall, I am planning a trip to Oregon in a C172 and figure
that I could use some mountain flying training.

Can anyone recommend a good Mountain Flying Course? Preferably
near Colorado Springs (I have family there).

Any other tips on taking such a long journey?

Thanks,
