Students who learn in this manner end up with an accelerated learning path in real flight lessons. One other reason flying students take this course is that its fun, without the risk of making mistakes in real planes. 

Howard Forder is your instructor and this course was conducted in a flight school for years to prepare pilots for real flight training. Come along and enjoy the thrills and skills that flying offers in this beginner course.
