Flight Instruction

Want to Improve Your Flying Skills?

Chuck Coleman focuses on advanced flight training which incorporates every type of aerobatic maneuver, formation, and recognition, and recovery of unusual attitudes. Coleman teaches the many aspects of aerobatics utilizing a custom set of maneuvers based on the student's past experience, needs, and aspirations by customizing every flight lesson. Many students come to Coleman to learn International Airshow Club (IAC) and airshow routines, tail wheel, upset training, and familiarization with the Extra300L Flugzeugbau.

 

The front passenger seating with full dual controls allows for an unmatched dual instruction environment. The visibility through the one-piece canopy is also a feature that makes flying aerobatics even more satisfying! Coleman has performed chase duties for programs such as the Collier Trophy winning SpaceShip One designed by Burt Rutan, and has flown at hundreds of airshows.

 

Flights performed at the Mojave Air and Space Port, California, or Cameron Air Park, California.  Request   repositioning to accommodate your convenience. Pricing $420 for dual instruction in Extra 300L per Tach-Time hour  with no other expenses. Use of GoPro’s is at no charge.

 

Camera mounts are positioned to record video of the passenger in the front seat of the cockpit. Cameras are also strategically placed in various places such as the wings, tails, and fuselage to capture the passenger during flight and aerobatic maneuvers.
