There are a few openings available in the Idaho back country mountain flying courses this summer. If you are interested in the next level of flying, it may be mountain, canyon and back country flying! Please consider attending one of these seminars with back country instruction this summer! If you have heard about the Idaho back country, then you know what I mean. If you haven't, then please consider browsing and putting McCall, Idaho on your summer adventure list! McCall is an excellent place from which to launch into the Idaho back country. There are 50 airstrips in the Frank Church "River of No Return" Wilderness area, and nearby back country. This is the coolest place in the lower 48.. (of course Alaska is better, but it is a long way away. :-) http://www.mountaincanyonflying.com/ I've been, it is GREAT!

August 11, 2007 at Centennial Airport (APA), Denver, Colo. Centennial Airport (APA). SPONSORED BY THE COLORADO AIR SAFETY FOUNDATION: The Colorado Air Safety Foundation is a non-profit corporation organized and operated exclusively for the purpose of promoting and furthering education and public safety in the aviation industry. In Colorado, accident statistics show that pilots without the skills needed for safe flight over mountainous terrain often get themselves in situations which are beyond their capability to handle. The mountain flying course is a program developed to improve that capability. THE COURSE: The ground school course was originally developed by the Colorado Pilots Association in 1986. It is presented in Colorado at least twice each year and occasionally at out-of-state locations. It is taught by Colorado pilots who live and fly the mountains in business and recreational flying. Through the years it has evolved into one of the premier safety training courses of its kind. The course takes the student on a simulated flight over several mountain passes and into a number of high elevation mountain airports. Instructors take time to discuss factors affecting the safety of flight at each step on the route and make extensive use of aerial photography and a technical workbook to illustrate information needed for a safe flight. The workbook is part of the course materials provided under the registration fee for the course. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MOUNTAIN FLYING AVIATION, LTD, FORT COLLINS/GREELEY, COLORADO, USA If you can not make any of the above, or want personalized instruction tailored to your needs, wants, and desires, all is not lost!
