Companion Copilot Course

What if? It’s a question no one wants to ask, but being prepared is the ultimate act of love. ❤️ For the spouses of pilots, the skies can sometimes feel uncertain. That’s why Race City Flight Operations is thrilled to introduce the AOPA Safety Institute Companion Copilot course!
This invaluable course empowers the non-pilot spouse with the essential knowledge and skills to safely land the aircraft in the event of pilot incapacitation. Imagine the peace of mind knowing your loved ones have the tools to navigate an emergency and ensure everyone’s safety. This isn’t about taking over the controls regularly; it’s about having a lifeline when it matters most.
Give the gift of preparedness and security. Let’s empower your co-pilot on the ground to become a vital part of your safety net in the air. Contact Race City Flight Operations today to learn more about the Companion Copilot course. Because family safety is always the top priority.

This is a 5 hour ground school and 5 hours in the aircraft. The copilot must be 18 years old or older.

Notes: If the course is taught in your aircraft, we will need to ensure an instructor will qualify on your insurance. In our aircraft, we will teach the course using the most appropriate aircraft to your application. In the simulator, we have a Cessna 172 and a Beechcraft Baron 55.
