TKI = Theoretical Knowledge Instruction

You will be flying a high-performance 310 BHP Pitts S-2B with full dual controls and EFIS. After each spin it takes no more than two minutes to climb back to altitude. The Pitts is capable of doing all types of spins; safe, predictable and totally in control. Furthermore, the Pitts is approved for sustained inverted flight. It flies legally within weight and balance limitation whilst carrying the legal amount of (reserve, trip, alternate and contingency) fuel.

 

Our modified Pitts S-2B has surprisingly similar flight characteristics as a Boeing 737; namely the pitch attitude for climb (18*), a rate of climb of 2600 fpm, and flight controls positioned quite similar to the RH seat of the Boeing flight deck.

 

The Pitts S-2B is certified for -3 and +6 G’s. Most importantly, unlike our competitors, the aircraft is uniquely certified for sustained inverted flight. Only this airplane can expose students to the physiological and psychological impacts of severe upset situations in realistic scenarios. The importance of doing this for real cannot be overemphasised.

Am I 'stuck' on something?

The agreement can be terminated prematurely; you are not attached to anything. The costs never extend beyond the lessons that have been followed and the costs that we have paid for you in advance.

The training does not have to be paid in one go, but you can ‘pay as you go’.
