Arizona Flight Training Center

From Rob Olson:

My conversion training to the Cessna 210 continues. This plane is considered a high performance (over 200 hp engine) and complex (retractable landing gear). Because of this classification, my insurance company requires at least 10 hours of instruction from a certified flight instructor. Rick Rademaker of the Arizona Flight Training Center, is a an amazing CFI, as well as a great friend. He also owns a 210. So, I'm getting the best training possible.

I'm moving up from a Cessna 172. The greatest difference is the speed of the airplane. It's fast! The engine is bigger, so the nose is heavier. And I no longer have a fixed landing gear. All these factors present new challenges, especially on landing. So, that's what Rick and I have been working on, over the last 2 flights. Getting the plane slowed down and then putting it on the ground. Because in aviation, takeoffs are optional.....but landings are mandatory!

The flight was flown by Rick Rademaker, of the Arizona Flight Training Center, in their gorgeous Cessna 210. Rick and the crew, offer top notch, flight training at Glendale airport.
