LOOKING FOR A VTOL INSTRUCTOR (ASAP)

Unread post by GeorgeP92 »

Looking for a VTOL user and capable systems instructor - someone who is capable and willing to spend time teaching the thorough system to users with minimal base knowledge (I should think minimum 3 weeks max 6). Obviously a week or so will be given for system familiarization and thereafter instruction is required to be given. Rates etc all to be discussed - board lodging and transport all included. Drop me a line

There are a number of training facilities right under your nose (I read your home base as Lanseria).

For 6 people I am sure they will run a special course for your team, thats a good chunk of business for them.

Additionally they have all the facilities for training, visual aids, charts, etc. etc. Further to this they have access to registered drones and can take you all the way from flight training through to final RPL practicals with the CAA for students.
All this costed as a package with flight training, etc, etc...

I have not yet heard of any "freelance" instructors, because the aviation framework does not allow for this kinda of approach to training.

Its hard to explain in great detail on open forum, but you will most definitely learn all of this in any official RPL training.

But essentially there cant be official instructors who freelance. They would have to work for a training institution whose course material, and ultimately their business, needs to be certified by the SACAA. Together with this drones need to be registered to that business, and a whole big'o heap of other certifications and boxes to check before a RPL training institution can open up for business.

Nothing to do with CAA (thankfully) this training is required outside RSA. Would just need to be a qualified instructor or soemone with suitable hours and experience otherwise.
