One of the greatest of the many joys that comes our way are the
friendships and relationships we develop with hundreds of people
each year... some of whom truly impress us even though the normal
rank and file of aviation rarely hear of them. It's our job to fix
that, here and there. Bridgette Doremire is a good person to add to
that group.
Bridgette is a Master CFI, CFII, MEI, and Airframe &
Powerplant Mechanic. She is an FAA Safety Team (FAAST) Volunteer
and a Proficiency Instructor for both Cessna and Cirrus Pilot
Associations. In those capacities, she has delivered lectures on
GPS and Advanced Avionics at locations throughout California. As an
avionics technician, she has conducted several IFR certification
test flights for GPS, MFD, TCAD, Autopilot, FMS, and other avionics
installations.
She is the author of over 30 Qref Avionics & GPS Checklists
and has published one book, “Flight Instructor
Notebook”, a lesson plan guide for upcoming flight
instructors plus sage advice on day-to-day flight instruction.
Bridgette’s articles have appeared in numerous magazines and
is active on many online aviation forums. Bridgette became a Master
CFI in 2004 and a Cirrus Standardized Instructor in June 2005. She
is a member of AOPA, NAFI, and SAFE. She is also a FAA Remedial
Training Program Instructor for the Van Nuys FSDO.
Bridgette specializes in GPS and Advanced Avionics Instruction.
More than just learning the knob twists and button presses,
Bridgette teaches integration of the GPS into the flying process. A
member of the FAA/Industry Training Standards Program (FITS), she
has authored two FAA-Accepted courses with several more pending FAA
review. These courses integrate scenario-based training with
advanced avionics and GPS, real training for today’s
flying.
