Robinson R-22 Schedule Wide Open Now!
Nov 20, 2024Recently, the H.O.G.S. team, also known as Helicopter Online Ground School, embarked on an exhilarating journey to Las Vegas for a book signing event and to conduct some flying sessions in the picturesque desert. This blog post expands on our vibrant experiences in Vegas, the incredible opportunities offered with the R-22 and R-44 helicopters, and the unique training programs available through H.O.G.S..
Las Vegas is always a spectacle, and our recent trip added a new layer of excitement. We were there for a two-week stint, packed with a series of engaging activities. Most prominently, we held a book signing event for Kenny Keller and Taz Christmans' book: "Top 10 Check-ride Tips". This book provides vital insights to ease the check-ride anxiety many pilots face come day of.
In addition to the book signing, we had the opportunity to experience the thrill of flying in the vast desert environment. A video capturing the essence of this adventure will be released soon, giving our followers a firsthand view of the breathtaking flights and diverse landscapes we encountered.
R-22 Training: Final Approach Course
Upon returning to our hangar after the Vegas venture, we shifted our focus to the R-22. This versatile helicopter is perfect for both novice pilots and those looking to polish their skills. We immediately conducted two ratings – Todd Ketterman received an SFAR sign off, and Hunter Gamble completed his CFI initial.
One of the exciting offerings related to the R-22 is the Final Approach Course (FAC). Designed meticulously over a year and a half, this course is an ultimate solution for pilots struggling to complete their check-rides. The FAC includes three days of intensive preparation followed by a check-ride on the fourth day. However, the catch is that pilots need to have completed all their requirements before arriving in Indiana.
Pilots who enroll in the FAC undergo a preparatory Zoom session where their knowledge is thoroughly assessed. Being a H.O.G.S. member and having gone through all the instructional videos is mandatory. The goal is to ensure 100% readiness, allowing students to smoothly transition to the final check-ride phase.
R-44 Adventures with Taz Christman in Las Vegas
For those inclined towards a more robust flying experience, the R-44 is a fantastic option. Available in Las Vegas with Taz Christman, the R-44 offers a variety of engaging opportunities. Whether you're interested in mountain flying courses, an advanced flight course (FAC), or even an executive team-building event, the R-44 and Taz provide the ideal setup.
Las Vegas is not just about casinos and showgirls; it's also home to adventurous flying quests. With the R-44, you can opt for an SFAR sign-up or simply spend a memorable day flying with Taz. The mountainous terrains around Las Vegas offer a perfect backdrop for honing your flying skills while enjoying stunning natural vistas.
