2/5/2011 — Thanks for choosing Gulf Coast Aviation as your flight training location.

We are excited to have you onboard!

We are confident that you have made a wise choice in flight schools as we are committed to providing the best maintained aircraft, the best instructors, and the best curriculum available in the industry. We also know that in order for you to be pleased with your training you must be satisfied every step of the way, so please don’t hesitate to give us constructive criticism. We are eager to learn how we can constantly improve our school and provide you with a better learning experience.

While the Cessna Pilot Kit that you purchased provides a complete, state-of-the-art curriculum, this packet contains extra information that we feel should be emphasized to help you prepare even better for your Private Pilot Practical Test.

To get started you will need to provide photo identification and proof of citizenship (birth certificate, passport or naturalization certificate.) We’ll make photo copies of these and return them to you. While there are no medical requirements to begin your training you will need to obtain a third class aviation medical certificate before you can solo. We recommend that you obtain this certificate early in your training to ensure you can qualify before large amounts of time and money are invested. We’ll provide you with a list of approved Aviation Medical Examiners (AMEs) in the area. Don’t assume that any disability will impair you as people with all sorts of physical abilities are able to fly.

Please remember to watch the appropriate videos before each lesson as they will help you get the most out of your program. You can expect most flight lessons (with the exception of cross-countries) to last about two hours. Your instructor will give you a briefing of what you’ll be going over that day, answer any questions you may have, and then take you flying. After the flight expect to spend 15-30 minutes reviewing what you did well and what you need to work on.

Thanks again for flying with us and please let us know how we can better serve you.

Looking forward to flying with you,

The team at Gulf Coast Aviation
