NPIA Set To Launch Its 'New Concept' In Flight Training

Open House Set For November 30

The National Instrument Proficiency Academy (NIPA) plans to launch its new concept in flight training 0n Tuesday, November 30th at Norwood Airport (KOWD) in Massachusetts. NIPA is a flight school run by flight instructors and focused on pilot proficiency training.

The Grand Opening will be at hangar 10 from 0900-1900 EST. NIPA plans on supplying food as well as opportunities to fly in their Cirrus SR20 and test fly their new full motion simulator. Cessna plans to have their Skycatcher on display from the hours of 1000-1600 EST that day. The new 162 Skycatcher brings the latest technology to the light sport or “starter plane” market.

NIPA is currently offering workshops at KOWD. These workshops are designed to educate pilots after their initial training. Topics include advanced training in weather, communications and flying instrument approaches. Those workshops will also be available for purchase on the web.

As a flight school focused on safety, NIPA’s goal is to increase pilot confidence and proficiency. It was established as a resource for instrument rated pilots and students pursuing their Instrument Rating as well as pilots who would simply like to fly better and safer in VFR conditions. Too often pilots complete their training and then become distracted and disengaged from the flying community. The result is a dangerous lack of proficiency and the loss of support from the flying community as a whole. NIPA hopes to help mitigate this issue by providing a means of reconnecting pilots and instructors and supplying them with recurrent training, and is committed to coaching, training and mentoring pilots to help them fly safely in actual instrument meteorological conditions.
