The Cirrus Owners and Pilot’s Association (COPA: www.cirruspilots.org) regularly holds intense training weekends throughout the world. This weekend, NorCal Approach will be busy working more SR20 and SR22 airplanes than usual, as the Cirrus Pilot Proficiency Program (CPPP) comes to Concord’s Buchannan Field.
I was asked to join the instructor corps, and I’m thrilled to be a part of it. If you’re a Cirrus driver attending the event, be sure to say hello. If you’re a Cirrus driver not attending, why not? It’s an outstanding program. I’ve been to numerous weekend events (Seattle, Van Nuys, and who can forget the simulator session offered in Las Vegas!) and I learn something new every time.
If you fly Cirrus airplanes and haven’t attended a CPPP, I urge you to consider it as part of your annual recurrent training. Contact me for more information.
