🥳 Shouting out a HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to Jamie Caudill on the completion of her first solo flight at KCFO! This is an incredible milestone and you definitely deserve the spotlight to celebrate the moment! Let's goooooo! 🥳
Flying in the mountains is very challenging, particularly for general aviation aircraft. Aircraft performance, mountain weather phenomena, and elevated density altitudes all present their challenges. To safely fly in the mountains, a solid mountain flying ground school is a prerequisite.![]()
This ground school is designed to be the first part of a full Mountain Flying course. The second portion of this course is a practical mountain flying experience; travelling through Granby, Glenwood Springs, Leadville, and then back to the Colorado Air and Space Port.![]()
This ground school will cover:
Density Altitude
Mountain Weather
Mountain Hazards
High Altitude Operations![]()
Our instructor, Tim Sale, has been flying in the Rockies for over 20 years. Tim’s approach is to teach pilots how to skillfully and safely fly in the mountains, not just over them.
Mountain flights can be scheduled after the ground course. Participants are welcome to schedule FRFS aircraft or use their own aircraft for the flight portion.![]()
Available Sessions:
Saturday, April 19, 2025 - 9:00AM-4:00PM MT
Saturday, May 17, 2025 - 9:00AM-4:00PM MT![]()
