A Good Reason to Visit Oshkosh

Ultralight pilots, take note: EAA is hosting another ultralight flight instructor ground school. The course will be held at the EAA Aviation Center on March 20-21, 2004.  Each session includes ground school instruction on more than a dozen practical topics necessary to earn an EAA Ultralight Flight Instructor rating. 

Those areas include Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs); airspace and airport operations; vehicle airworthiness inspections; student and pilot endorsements; and more.  Ultralight instructor written tests will be offered at the end of the two-day course.

EAA has received an exemption from FAA to designate qualified ultralight flight instructors to provide training in two-place ultralights.  This ground school session, which does not include flight time, will help people become qualified as ultralight flight instructors.  EAA staff and professional flight instructors will present course material in a state-of-the-art classroom environment.

Registration for EAA members is $295 for the two-day session or $345 for non-members.  It includes accommodations in EAA's new Air Academy Lodge and a "behind-the-scenes" tour of EAA's facilities.
