The Northeast Tribe is proud to host the New Comanche Pilots Training Program this spring from April 17 to 19 at Danielson Airport (KLZD).

The Comanche Pilots Training Program (CPTP) is a total immersion weekend training course for Comanche pilots of all experience levels. Led by Comanche owner/pilots with over 40 years experience in Comanche�s of all types (singles and twins), these professional instructors will help you learn what you need to know to operate your Comanche in an efficient, safe and enjoyable manner.

During the 2-3 day program, pilots participate in over 10 hours of Comanche specific ground training in an interactive classroom and hangar-lab setting. Additionally, optional flight training in your own aircraft is offered with the full program.

In the ground-training periods, instructor-led aircraft systems review is interspersed with lively �hangar flying� moments. Your overall Comanche knowledge is enhanced by the shared experiences of your fellow Comanche pilots and engaging in group question and answer periods.

Integral to the classroom experience is a �hands-on� lab utilizing both training tools and a live aircraft. Each pilot will perform a manual landing gear extension and join in an expanded pre-flight walk around inspection, highlighting Comanche specific items on your aircraft. The plan is to have two Comanches on jacks for this activity, one single and one twin.

Pilots who choose the full program have the opportunity to receive up to three hours of personalized flight training in their own aircraft. Follow your own syllabus or allow one of the highly experienced professional flight instructors to guide you through your flight. Upon completion of your flight you are sure to feel a renewed sense of confidence. Provided certain tasks are accomplished your flight period may qualify as a Biannual Flight Review (BFR) and/or an Instrument Proficiency Check (IPC).

So, whether you and your Comanche are just getting acquainted or are old friends, the CPTP will enable you to become a more competent and confident pilot. It�s the best Comanche training available anywhere. Come and join us, and we�ll all have a great time.
