Goal
I want to provide the things you want to hear about. Please send comments on subjects you’d like to read about and I will try to eventually write about it. I plan on writing about several things, such as things that I’ve experienced or heard about from other pilots, tips and tricks to help you understand better, suggestions on alternate ways of learning, what mind set you need to learn to fly, etc.
I am currently working on videos and other services for flight schools and students, both free and paid to help you learn much easier. Every effort will be taken to prevent mistakes and make things as easy to understand as possible. This information is meant to be used as a learning guide only and is not a substitute for one on one instruction or more detailed explanations from your instructor.
About Me
I am Certified Flight Instructor in both single and multi engine planes. I have been flying more than 30 years and instructing for over 20 years. I have over 9,500 hours of instruction given as of the start of 2023. I have experience with various types of planes and equipment as well as a some corporate and charter experience. Details that help students understand are important. I like to explain things to my students in a way they can relate to, using real world explanations that are less technical and easier to visualize. The end result is a safe, proficient pilot who has the skills and knowledge needed to become the best pilot they can be.
I hope the information in this site helps you to accomplish your goal of understanding the things you struggle with and becoming the best pilot you can be. I’m always open to suggestions and welcome feedback on anything I write. Have a great day!
Sincerely,
Joseph Standley CFI, CFII, MEI
