About The Creator
As an active pilot with years of experience as a multi-engine instructor, I am passionate about sharing my knowledge with aspiring pilots. I developed this multi-engine guide to assist my students in preparing for the multi-engine checkride. My goal with this guide is to raise awareness about the seriousness of light twin flying and to enhance safety and quality within the aviation community. This course will help students save time and money on ground school by providing access to all relevant information that may arise during the checkride, presented in a seamless and easy-to-use format.
