SECONDARY GLIDER TRAINING PROGRAM
ADVANCED STUDENT GLIDER PILOT & ADD-ON
5 to 7 hours session in 1 or 2 days
2 to 3-Hour Ground Training Session(s)
To complete the private pilot glider course you will need to complete the knowledge section of the course syllabus with your instructor. The knowledge section of the course syllabus is mostly independent of the flight training section.
This allows you to work on the knowledge section with your instructor on days when the weather conditions are not flyable. Your goal should be to finish the knowledge section of the syllabus before or at about the same time you finish the flight training
3-5 Hours Flight Training Session(s)
For transitioning pilots or Add-on to a Power Pilot Certificate, first a glider rating is needed. Then a Motorglider/SelfLaunch endorsement after training will be added to your logbook. This is a one-time deal. Checklist, power flying, and glider flying techniques will be demonstrated, and the student will be able to practice with the instructor the necessary required maneuvers to qualify for a Motorglider/SelfLaunch endorsement.
