ULTIMATE HIGH ADVANCED PPL SYLLABUS ULTIMATE HIGH BASIC WINGS

Advanced PPL Training Ultimate High Basic Wings

Includes: - Improved General Handling skills Max rate Level Turns, Max Rate Possible Turns, Emergency Breaks - Stalling revision and advanced stalling - Flight in and through controlled airspace - Emergencies Concentrated practice on PFLs and EFATOs, fuel, stuck throttle, engine mechanical failure & fire etc - Circuits and landings making them better - Introduction to Aerobatics - Variable Pitch Propeller Differences Training & signoff (if required) Entry requirements: valid JAR/CAA PPL and Class 2 medical. Most students will have flown at least 20 hours since PPL issue, but the course may be taken immediately after completion of a PPL. Besso Insurance offer a 5% discount on aircraft insurance to graduates of our Advanced PPL Training courses who pass the end of course flight test. A pass is not guaranteed. Students who successfully pass the test will receive a UHBW Badge and Certificate of Completion.

10 hours flying time, 15 hours ground training. Courses normally start on a Monday and continue through Friday/ Saturday. Due to busy schedules, we are unable to start new courses on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday, except in the winter months.

Combined Course - Advanced PPL Training & AOPA Aerobatics Certificate

See course details above. Entry requirements: valid JAR/CAA PPL and Class 2 medical. Most students will have flown at least 20 hours since PPL issue, but the course may be taken immediately after completion of a PPL.
