Other frequently asked questions

1. "What sort of lodging would we get?"
• The attractive client house overlooks the lake. It is very close to town center, has kitchen, fireplace, four bedrooms, two baths, very nice. Rooms available setup for couples or singles. The house is great for groups and often allows solo occupancy without extra charge. It's good for most folks. The hotel or lakeside casita is for people who need a little more attention and especially those with non-flying companions. This gives a wide range of lodging options.
2. "Does it include any meals?"
• No our rates do not include meals. A variety of restaurants are available and there is the full kitchen at the house with refrigerator, stove, etc. Breakfast at the hotel is optional.
3. "Would we be the only people in your 'class', or tour?"
• Depends on who we have scheduled. We will not overbook so there should be a good distribution of people to equipment and enough guides and vehicles. We are also happy to schedule just one person so we don't require a group.
4. "What certification do you have?"
• Jeff is an Advanced Instructor through the USHPA (United States) and his partner Alex is a USHPA Basic Instructor. Both are advanced rated pilots.
