Your dream of flying a bush plane Alaska can come true, and you will come away with new skills that will help you in a real emergency off-airport landing.
Our programs run 3-7 days, you can do as little as an afternoon of training or as many days as you like.
Flight training in Alaska has many ups downs, but what mountain flying doesn't? You can enjoy flying through the mountain pass just like the old bush pilots did, ending your day landing at some of the historic places in Alaska's bush flying history. You will learn to "talk" with your airplane and understand how to feel what the airplanes energy is by using your outside references and the feel of the aircraft. While learning some of the old bush pilot techniques John has learned from many of the old Alaskan bush pilots, many of them has helped keep many aviators alive over the years in Alaska.
We customize our programs for each student and their skill level. Any pilot can come fly with us and expand their aviation skill set. We can set up a program that has short legs and more landings or longer distances and fewer landings. You set the goals in your training we are here to help you along the path.
