Experienced CFI/CFI-I/MEI
Experienced CFI/CFI-I/MEI offering instruction in your airplane. Alternatively, I have access to a Piper Cherokee you can learn in. I'm tailwheel, complex, and high performance endorsed and proficient. Train for a certificate, rating, do your BFR, IPC, or just a refresher. After making a successful career as a concert pianist and university professor, I now also have the privilege of teaching people the miracle of flight. I love all aspects of aviation, whether flying old tailwheel airplanes off grass strips, aerobatics, long cross-country flights, or flying instrument approaches in minimum ceilings and visibility.
