Better Weather = More
Flying!
Spring is a great time to
fly, with good weather, improved
visibilities, smoother air, and
generally-less coastal fog for those fun
Santa Barbara and Monterey weekends! Need
some recurrent training or a BFR before the
flying season gets into full swing?
Contact us today.
FAA Seminar April 28
Mark your
calendars for an informative seminar
Saturday March 28 at 10am at Placerville
Aviation. The topic is Loss of Control
Accidents. Should be a good one. To share a
ride, contact
Bill
or
Jeff.
Two April Flyouts
Join us for one or both flyouts scheduled
for this month:
Sunday, April 22: Monterey Lunch
Saturday, April 28: Placerville Aviation
Seminar
Both flyouts meet at 9am in the
lobby. Let us know if you plan to attend so
we can save you seat.
New IFR Training Program
Integrates Simulator with Airplane Time
Thanks to a great working relationship
with SimCheck at Mather Field, Bill is now
providing a lower-cost and higher-quality
Instrument Rating program. Learn the
procedures in the sim, then sharpen them in
the airplane. It's a great way to learn, and
could lower training costs substantially.
Contact
Bill for
details.

SEEKING LEASEBACKS!
Anybody know of a
well-maintained airplane that could be put
on the MHA flight line as a leaseback?
There could be substantial tax advantages to
leasing an airplane to MHA, and we'd
love to have more planes to fly. We'd really
like a multi-engine plane, like an Apache or
Seneca, or maybe an LSA, but a nice
4--place single would be great to have, too.
Anyway, if you're a plane owner and would
like to explore the possibilities of turning
your airplane into an income stream, or at
least lower your cost of ownership, call
Jeff Vandermeulen at 209/295-7761
Ross Anderson Joins
Instructor Team
Welcome Ross Anderson, CFII, as the
latest addition to the MHA team. For
information about training, BFRs or IPCs,
call Ross at 209/296-1342.
Need a Flight Review? Recurrent
Training?
Licensed pilots and students alike need
training on a consistent basis to stay sharp
and safe. If you'd like to brush-up on
crosswinds, GPS navigation, flying into
highly-controlled airspace, or any other
"weak spot" in your skills, call
Bill at
209/304-2576 or Ross at 209/296-1342.
Ideas Needed
What aviation activity would you like to see
at MHA? Poker Run? Rally? Advanced training
(emergencies, survival, basics for spouses)?
Give us your ideas, we'll see if we can make
them come to life. |
