PROFICIENCY · IPC & FLIGHT REVIEW

Current is
not the same as ready

Instrument proficiency checks and flight reviews for pilots who already hold the certificate. You'll get the plan the night before, real weather where it's safe to have it, and a written debrief you can study from.

WHAT I DO

Two things, done properly

01 · INSTRUMENT PROFICIENCY CHECK

Back in the system, honestly

The full 61.57(d) task list flown the way you'd actually fly it — not six approaches in perfect VMC. Partial panel, holds, circling where the airport allows it, and the go/no-go conversation that matters more than any of it.

61.57(d) · ACTUAL IMC WHEN IT'S SAFE

02 · FLIGHT REVIEW

More than an hour and an hour

The regulation asks for one hour of ground and one of flight. That's the floor, not the plan. We'll build it around the flying you're actually doing this year — the trips, the airports, the weather you keep meeting.

ALSO

Scenario days and checkouts

Not a certificate requirement — just the flying that keeps you sharp between them. A day built around a trip you're planning, or getting comfortable in an airplane that's new to you.

HALF DAY OR FULL DAY

I don't teach primary students or train for the instrument rating — there are good people nearby who do, and I'm happy to point you at them. What I do is get certificated pilots current and keep them that way.

THE AIRPLANE

Cirrus SR22 G6
is home turf

Most of my recurrent work is with SR22 owners flying Perspective+, and it shows in the detail — the reference cards on this site were built from the POH for that airframe, not copied off a generic speed list.

That's a specialism, not a restriction. Bring whatever you fly.

01

Pre-brief

Weather, route, and the one thing we're fixing today. You get it the night before.

02

Fly it

You fly, you talk, you make the calls. I stay quiet unless it matters.

03

Debrief

What worked, what didn't, and what to go practise before next time — in writing.
