Livin'  the   Dream  Flight  School  is    dedicated to quality flight instruction  insuring   every  student   becomes  a competent  and  safe  pilot  as well as an  enthusiastic  participant  in sport aviation.

Welcome to the exciting world of the Powered Parachute ( or PPC )!  You have found this site, we are sure, because you are considering learning to fly these incredible machines.   Whether you are starting from 'scratch' or have had a few rides or lessons,k be assured youwill find a professional and ehthusiastic environment to enter this remarkable flying experience through this flight school.

We are located in the Denver, Colorado area and our goal is to provide each student an enjoyable, enriching, and professional training environment.  We want you to find the experience positive and one where you develop flying skills based on safety and fun.  When you graduate from this school, there will be no doubt you are well skilled to fly these great aircraft!

TRAINING AT YOUR LOCATION - NATIONWIDE

Even though training continues here in Colorado in earnest, some of you are not the "cold weather" types.   If you are really serious about getting into Powered Parachuting but lack the insulation for cold weather flight, you might consider taking lessons in your area.  It only requires the reimbursement for fuel and a spot for me to locate my RV.  I'll provide all the equipment and ground schooling at your doorstep!

This does require you have the time to concentrate on your training and can fly mornings and evenings while I visit.   The cost for training is the same, $120/hr.  You need a minimum of 12 hours to take the checkride...you do the math.  If you look at other sites offering this service, you will find this is about a third of the cost.   My goal is to get you in the air ASAP.  So, let me know when you would like to start on this adventure!

 

                                                                            READY TO FLY???

Seems a little weird to be writing this message as I watch lots of snow fall from the sky.   But, it seems when I am stuck indoors I think about flying.  I have returned from Florida and am now settling back into the training mode for Colorado.   If you want to see a sort video of my Florida adventure, link to:

I have several students who are ready to return to skies as soon as they clear-up.  You can join that group by contacting me and arranging an intro flight or to start training.

Believe me, the snow will cease and the runways will be clear!  And if training starts now, you can have your Sport Pilot PPC license before the flying months arrive.
   
I hope you also decide to try flying.   I am here to make the journey economical and fun.  Just let me know what you would like to do and we'll make it happen.  Until then, have a great year!!!

A final thought:  Getting your Sport Pilot license isn't just flying.   Now is the time to break open your study material and read, read, read.   The Powered Parachute Flying Handbook is a great general book to read and when you are done with that break open your Sport Pilot Checkride book and keep going through the Powered Parachute segments to prepare yourself for the check ride.  We don't just fly but study as well so take this opportunity to get some book work done!

Hope you are all having great days.  Let me know what I can do for you!!!!  Keep reading and studying and let's make Sport Pilot a reality for you.

I want to remind those of you looking at units for sale to call me to get an opinion and for help.  I am dedicated in helping in any way possible to guide your research  My goal it make sure you make an informed decision as to what you want to purchase.....just let me know how I can help.
