What The Number Buys
Ours, maintained in our own hangar, on the line at Van Nuys.
Fuel is in the number. The instructor is charged separately.
Which is why the sport pilot licence can be flown in it in half the hours.
Better visibility down, which matters over a city you are learning to navigate.
A checkout flight with one of our instructors before you take it alone.
Hours in it go toward the private licence as well as sport.
