From the responses of the individuals who attended I believe the training was top notch.
Jeff, et al, naysayers even, ...
T'was top notch. Everyone has much to learn and be "refreshed" on with respect to our unique Lancairs - whether they be 320s, IV-Ps, Columbias or otherwise configured. When was the last time you practiced an instrument approach at night, with no hydraulics? How about an engine out over strange, almost sea level, territory (true x-cntry, 1000 mi from home)? Huh? Huh? ....
When was the last time you thought about our special airplanes in adverse weather and the consequences? This ain't no Cessna/Piper/Beech/Mooney! Pay attention, your insurance company is! Besides all that serious stuff, it can be fun if you find the right folks to fly close by or go to dinner in suspicious locations or just seek out cheap, but dangerous, gas. Also, is 8 hours from bottle to thottle measured from the first toast or from the closer?
