Pinch Hitter Course

What is a Pinch Hitter Course?

If you're a pilot, you've probably had your passengers ask you:

What should I do if you are unable to fly for some reason?
How could I land this airplane by myself?
How do the systems work in an airplane?

Your passengers will feel more comfortable if they know the basics of flying, although the pilot will most likely never be unable to fly the airplane while carrying passengers.

Our Pinch Hitter Course is simple and just shows the customer the basics: how to land the aircraft and how to use the radios.

In just a few hours, we can prepare you for the unlikely situation that the pilot will become incapacitated and unable to complete the flight.

The course includes:

Quick reference guide to the airplane
Practical landings and straight and level flight
Radio communication and emergency procedures

Total approximately 5

Once you are involved in flight training it might be a good time for your family members to enroll in this safety course while you are studying. It is a good option, just in case.
