Learn How To Master the Fundamentals
Every flight starts with a takeoff and ends with a landing, yet many pilots lack the fundamentals to do them consistently because they weren’t properly taught, or they haven’t practiced enough to be proficient.
That’s where this course comes in. If you use it to pick up just one useful takeoff or landing technique, it will be worthwhile because you will use the technique over and over.
But (trust me) there are lots of useful techniques in this course. Some of the techniques Rod teaches are unique while others you may be familiar with, but Rod often puts a different spin on them or provides an example that suddenly makes things crystal clear. In some cases, Rod will validate a technique you are already using and that can be just as valuable.
Good takeoffs and landings start with a solid understanding and good technique — and that’s exactly what Rod delivers in this course.
Get Tips and Techniques From A True Legend
Rod has seen it all in four and a half decades of instructing, and over the years has developed his signature style of teaching.
If you’ve seen any of his live seminars at AirVenture, Sun ‘n Fun or other aviation venues around the world (they’re always packed beyond capacity), you know Rod doesn’t just rehash the same old stuff. He has a special way of explaining things that you will only find in his programs.
He can simplify the most complex topic in a way that is refreshingly easy to understand, then share a funny story that will help you remember it. He explains why and how things work, so you’ll really understand them, rather than just restating the usual textbook answers.
The lessons in this course can help you develop good technique or correct bad habits you may have developed over the years.
Why not learn from the best? Let Rod be your personal Flight Instructor and coach.

"This was a great refresher. I was rusty and this was just what just I needed to get going again. I picked up a bunch of new stuff I'll use over and over. A lot of fun and really helpful."

"Theory is great, but the techniques Rod shows are so useful with things like takeoffs and landings. The cartoon characters and animations he uses makes it interesting and do a great job of showing how to do it right. I'm a fan of Rod's courses and this one doesn't disappoint."
