I did my Commercial add on in 4 days with Burt at Marfa Gliders. It
was great! Very good training with high standards plus lots of fun. Deane wrote: Thanks for all the suggestions guys! I have some research to do now. D |

Yes Tony, but you had done your ground-school homework ahead of time, had solid airmanship skills and had dual with your excellent home-club CFIG, Matt Michael. Remember our landings on tow - including the touch & goes? How about that simulated off-airport landing? I might have surprised you, but you nailed it perfectly. Yep, we had a mighty good time adding on your glider rating. By the way, congrats on buying your first sailplane and your recent XC flights! Anyhow, I tell everyone to allow a week at Marfa (anytime of year) with us to acquire the new skills (above the FAA minimums), and be a competent, confident pilot when you take the checkride with me. Some do it in less time, but that's not the point, is it? Burt Compton, CFIG / FAA Designated Pilot Examier Marfa Gliders, west Texas www.flygliders.com cell: 800-667-9464 |
