This two-day training trip is designed to help California pilots gain experience with popular routes and airports in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. While the primary goal is education, many participants use the flight time to work toward high-performance endorsements, C182 checkouts, mountain checkouts, or G1000 avionics checkouts.
Trip Highlights
– Learn to fly safely over mountainous terrain
– Learn about high-elevation airport operations
– Experience some of California’s highest and trickiest airports safely
– See the beauty of the Sierras and stay overnight in Reno
