About the show

If you are looking for a way to supplement your pilot flight training, you are welcome to join us for recorded ground school lessons and conversations! Most of the lessons are in the format of a "guided discussion," which is considered to be easier to remember than a traditional lecture. Participants join in from around the world through the Pilot Flight Training club on the social media platform Clubhouse. More information is in the show notes. You are welcome to join us live as we record on Saturdays!
