Upset Training

The first time you find yourself upside-down in an airplane should not be by yourself on a dark and stormy night. Experiencing the sensations and the startle that comes with unexpected attitudes or events in a safe environment is what Upset training is all about.. The first time you use the strategies you will learn and practice for a safe and efficient recovery back to normal flight should not be to save your life!

The #1 killer of pilots is loss of control from spins or stalls.

It’s natural to fear something you don’t know. But from a controlled “building block” learning approach you’ll find that stalling, spinning, or finding yourself in unusual attitudes is not a big  deal. It may even become fun and addicting. With the right training and practice they can truly become positive memories that you share with your friends instead of a tragedy.

At AOA you’ll learn from an expert in dealing with tense and unusual situations. You can rely on Skip’s expertise to guide you safely and help you feel comfortable even when the situation isn’t.
