Light-Sport Enthusiasts Can Learn About Their Powerplants
Aero Technical Institute (ATI) told ANN recently it will offer
several engine training classes at this year's Lakeland fly-in in
mid-April. According to the company, openings still exist but space
is limited.
Aero Technical Institute Chief Instructor Dean Vogel said, "We
will offer a two-day 4-stroke class on Tuesday and Wednesday April
17 and 18, plus a two-day, 2-stroke class on Thursday and
Friday April 19 and 20, 2007."
Solely for aircraft
owners seeking a better understanding of Rotax powerplants in a
shorter class, Vogel highlighted a 1-day 4-stroke class on Saturday
April 21, 2007. He said, "If the Tuesday and Wednesday classes fill
up, another 2-day 4-stroke class will be scheduled on Sunday and
Monday April 22 & 23, 2007. All classes will be held from 8:00
am to 5:00 pm each day at the Lockwood display in the new
Lakeland's light plane area (formerly known as Paradise City, or
the Ultralight Area).
Cost of the 2-day classes is $445 for advance registration and
$545 at the event. For owners wishing to register for the 1-day
class the cost is $295 if they register before March 15, 2007, or
$325 if after that date or at the airshow.
ATI was formed to increase understanding of engines and
airframes throughout aviation but with a sharp focus on light-sport
aircraft. The company boasts expertise in Rotax engines, as
well as several LSA airframes.
Operating from the Lockwood Aircraft Supply facilities on the
Sebring Airport (home to the Sebring US Light Sport Expo), ATI says
few other teaching organizations can offer this rare combination of
hands-on experience with local experts to keep up with the latest
changes in a dynamic industry.
ATI is led by Dean Vogel, an ex-military fighter pilot who
previous directed Cirrus Design's work with governmental agencies
in the area of research and technology.
