Subject: Mountain/Canyon flying: CO/ID/UT!

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 flying 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. :-)

I've been, it is GREAT! I am on staff for a few weeks this summer.

MOUNTAIN FLYING - HIGH ELEVATION AIRPORT OPERATIONS GROUND SCHOOLS

WHEN: Saturday, June 21 and August 16, 2008
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.
