Sporty's Academy Resumes Training Operations

All Services Available With COVID-19 Precautions In Place

With many Ohio businesses open and others preparing for a restart, Sporty's Academy tells us they resumed training operations last week, Saturday, May 2.

Sporty's maintenance staff has carefully examined the entire fleet and cleared each aircraft for return to service, but also notes that each pilot should do the same for themselves as they prepare to return to the flight deck.
 
In light of the new reality, Sporty's has made changes. Plexiglas "sneeze guards" are in place at the FBO desk and Sporty's retail store. They ask you to complete a self-wellness check prior to coming to the airport and to respect and maintain the recommended 6' of social distance whenever possible. The Sporty's instructional staff has concluded training can be conducted safely while wearing a mask; therefore, face coverings are required during your time at the airport when it's not possible to maintain 6' of distance (including during in-airplane training).
 
Sporty's adds that, "After taking more than a month off, don't get discouraged if some of your flying skills have deteriorated. It is to be expected, and you may be surprised how quickly those skills will return."

To help you regain proficiency, Sporty's is offering the XSPEC 142 AATD (simulator) free of charge for existing customers.
