West Michigan Based CFI/Ferry Pilot - over 1200hr Dual Given
I am a professional pilot and CFI with over 2,600 hours total time and over 1,200 hours of dual given. I strive to take the variety of real world flying experience I have accumulated over the past decade and apply it to your training in order to make you the safest, most knowledgeable pilot that you can be. I have experience in over 35 types of GA aircraft, from Cirrus SR22’s to obscure experimentals. I offer training from PPL all the way through instructor certifications as well as specialty training such as tailwheel, high performance, aerobatics, and upset recovery (UPRT). I am a current corporate pilot but I still love to instruct and do so frequently during my off days. I am currently building my own experimental aircraft and enjoy running, playing golf, and spending time outdoors in my free time.
I also offer ferry pilot services. I look forward to working with you, whether you are looking to start your aviation journey or are looking for transition training in your newly purchased aircraft.
