APR 2010 Hi Wanda, I enjoyed the weekend course. It forced me to study which is what was needed. There were questions on the test we had covered. There were a few not covered. I drove over to the test center this (Monday) morning early and studied the questions in the Gleim Sport Pilot Answer book. One area you covered real well, that is important for all pilots, was understanding the sectional. I had taken a long 10 week, one night course, and they did not cover the map like you did. That was very important to me as I want to be able to use it in addition to the GPS. Also, there were no questions on the test I took that required a plotter, E6B or calculator. Actually, not a difficult test if a person just goes over and over the questions in the book. You might have a message on the phone number listed on pages of your presentation from this morning letting you know I “passed” (the Sport Pilot Knowledge test). Thanks, Bill Boeck, WI
APR 2010 Hi Wanda, Just wanted to let you know that I passed the Private Pilot Written exam last night at 10:25PM. It made for a long day, but I was glad to get over that hurdle. Thanks again for all your help …I got 80%! Sol Leitzke, WI

Now I’m in Greeley Colorado. I think the combination of preparing with the Jeppesen text book, then using your weekend ground school to prep for the test, worked well. Thanks for everything.

APR 2008 Hi Wanda, Passed the IGI this afternoon – 82%, not quite what I was hoping for but a win is a win, as they say! A helicopter question and a few other misunderstandings crept in on the day. I did want to say that the list of numbers for the time, distance, speed calculations was very handy – saved a bunch of time there, plus the various other ‘key phrases’ you and John emphasized in the course enabled me to get the answer and move on without agonizing over the options. … onwards to figure out the FOI.

JAN 2008 Hi Steve! Thanks for the call announcing your new IFR rating! Steve Lehme, IA
JAN 2008 Dear Wanda and John: I just wanted to take a minute and thank you for all the hard work you both did for Steve and I on our Accelerated Instrument Course. I know that trying to put together a program for one student in a seven day course is alot work. You took on two at once. I found that you were very well prepared and dedicated to do what ever it would take to help us achieve our instrument rating. As in real world flying we had many unforseeable issues come upon us, (i.e. weather,icing,colds, etc) and yet you were able to stay focused on our goals. The skills that you taught me will be in my cockpit for the rest of my life. I know of no other flight school where the instructors would work 16 hours a day. Drive countless hours. Pick us up and drop us off at our hotel, be at my check ride for support and be just as excited as me when I passed. I feel that I am a better and safer pilot due to your program. I am looking forward to scheduling my commercial rating with Am I High. Thanks again. Joseph Dolph, Private Pilot..INSTRUMENT RATED. Joe Dolph, IA.
JAN 2008 Wanda, I just passed the Instrument Airplane with 97%! Thank you Am I High Aviation for motivating me to get the written done. The fast pace, energetic and packed weekend ground school was just what I needed. William Cox, Wisconsin

Now just a few more dollars and I’ll get my license. Thank you, Jim Finn
