College credit for FAA certificates and ratings including ground school
Uniforms and dress code – black pants, clean shave, dark shorts for summer – old WIFA shirts ok as backup
Discussed having a person assigned to each aircraft to check for maintenance issues, inspections coming due, items missing in POH like weight & balance, etc.
Introduced our new CFI – Nadia: CFI, CFII. She will start this coming week.
Discuss new commercial pilots doing discovery flights – full time CFIs have first choice to do these
Required pre solo checks by another CFI – good idea before a checkride
