IFR Ground/Refresher Webinar Course Starts November 1st--First
Session Is FREE!!!
Frequent ANN contributor, Bob Miller, will be conducting an
8-week instrument pilot ground/refresher webinar course beginning
Tuesday, November 1, from 7pm to 9pm EST (0000Z to 0200Z).
This fast-paced course is designed for the serious instrument pilot
who wants to review all the critical components of the complex
world of IFR flight. This "live" interactive course will include
the organization and structure of the national airspace system as
it pertains to the instrument pilot.
It will dig deeply into the nuances of terminal instrument
procedures, low and high altitude en route charts, arrival and
departure procedures, MVAs, and the complexities of precision
RNAV/GPS approach procedures. It take a close look at what lies in
the future including ADS-B and our NextGen national airspace
system.
The course will unlock the mysteries of IFR communications and
how to "sweet talk" the system to obtain shortcuts to your
destination. It will take a close look at IFR flight risks with
special emphasis on defensive icing and embedded thunderstorm
avoidance strategies.
Bob tells ANN that, "This is NOT your traditional basic
instrument practical test prep course. Instead, this 8-week webinar
program takes you into the real world of instrument flight where
busy 'take-no-prisoner' controllers issue rapid-fire clearances in
the world's most congested airspace. This is a world seldom seen by
timid instrument flight instructors and fair weather-only
instrument pilots."
The first session of this 8-week course is free and Bob says
that if you like the first session, you can register for the
remaining seven sessions.
But.... what if you have to miss a session or two? No problem as
each session is recorded and available for future use. All
participants will be given a web link that can be used anytime to
access any missed session in their entirety.
