I have been flying since 1986 and instructing
since 1995. During that time I have accumulated over 4,500 hours in
airplanes and helicopters, with over 3,500 hours of dual flight instruction
given. After obtaining my Private Pilots License here in
San Diego, I served in the Army for six years flying both the UH-1 Huey Utility
Helicopter and the AH-1 Cobra Attack Helicopter. Upon completion of my term of
service, I returned to San Diego
and have been instructing full time in airplanes for the last twelve years. I
instruct independently utilizing club aircraft at
Montgomery
Airport
and am available for Private Pilot instruction, Commercial Pilot instruction,
Instrument Pilot Instruction, Multi-Engine Instruction, Aircraft Checkouts,
Biennial Flight Reviews, Instrument Proficiency Checks, Currency Training, Local
Area Orientations, and Sightseeing Flights on a Full-time basis. I instruct
because I enjoy instructing, not for time building. Therefore, my training
programs are focused on training quality and safety while trying to keep costs
down. I have both FAA Commercial Helicopter and Airplane Single
Engine Land with Instrument ratings, as well as
FAA Flight Instructor, Instrument Flight Instructor, Multi-Engine Flight
Instructor, Advanced Ground Instructor, and Instrument Ground Instructor
certificates.
