IFR, instrument rating, flight training

“The instrument rating has been my goal for several years to be a safer and better pilot. I was lucky to complete most of my flight training with David Waksberg, checkride preparation with Sara Stumpf and Dick Chang, and orals prep with Ray Owens. After postponing my checkride twice due to COVID, I was very happy to get it done on 7/2 with DPE Scott Rohlfing. Looking ahead, I’m excited to continue the journey at Aerodynamic with a commercial certificate.” ~ Stefan

New Instrument Rating – Mike Fritsche

Jun 12 2020
Date: April 14, 2020
Certification: Instrument Rating
Instructor: Nathaniel Thorpe
Aircraft: Cessna N53456

In mid February Mike Fritsche started training for his instrument rating with Aerodynamic Aviation in Monterey, California. He completed most of his training with CFII Nathaniel Thorpe, with some help from CFI Stephanie Procive. Mike works as a Deputy Sheriff for Monterey County Sheriff’s Office and needed to earn his instrument rating for their fixed-wing aviation program. He chose Aerodynamic for their instructor availability, location, and flexible training program. Mike completed his check-ride on 4/14/2020, earning his instrument rating. Mike wanted to thank his instructors for their patience and superior flight instruction, that contributed to his success. He plans on returning to Aerodynamic to complete his commercial flight training.

New Instrument Rating – Zibin He

Sep 25 2019
Date: September 19, 2019
Certification: Instrument Rating
Instructor: David Waksberg
Aircraft: Cessna N828LP

“Passing the instrument checkride is really a hard work pay off for me. After my private checkride, I jumped right into instrument almost without any break. Unlike all the beautiful things during private training, I only see one picture (the panel) all the time throughout the instrument training. It’s kind of a tolerate, but also discipline. It’s the pay off that I finally get my ticket to fly into clouds. I don’t plan to have any break and will do my commercial license training starting next week. Big thanks to David and everyone had ever helped me on my flight training.” ~Zibin

New Instrument Rating – Joseph Oberholtzer

Sep 23 2019
Date: September 3, 2019
Certification: Instrument Rating
Instructor: Dick Chang
Aircraft: Cessna N54102

Joseph Oberholtzer grew up hanging out at his best friend’s house at the end of a grass strip (KO03) and hearing stories of bush flying into the remote native communities in Canada. He now works as an engineer in aviation and is starting to collect his own flying stories that only other pilots and small children will to listen to. His current goal is to convince someone to let him fly their Pawnee (or really anything) to drag other airplanes through the sky.

We are happy to be part of his story. Congrats on achieving this hard-won aviation milestone!
