About the Flight School
I was encouraged by several friends to start an "R/C Flight School" in November, 2004, and with their help and support it came to be in early 2005. The first class was held in May 2005.
Here's our current staff:
Our UAV project manager, Gary Shane, PMP, holds a private pilots license,a ham license, as well as experience with UAS's. Gary can be contacted by email or at 888-780-6954 or 630-624-4254.
Mike Fuller, our helicopter instructor, is a full scale Helicopter pilot for the Army National Guard. He holds a commercial license for civilian use.
He also has been teaching radio control planes and helicopters for over ten
years. He expands the UAV Flight School capabilities in all areas of R/C flight.The bottom line: our training techniques removes the “panic” and frustration associated with mistakes and allows quicker learning with much less stress for the student!
Greg Shane is President and chief instructor for the Flight School. He has been flying RC for over 30 years and has been involved in training for his entire professional career.
The 2nd R/C Flight School is about quality flight instruction and not about how many students that have been trained! Thus far our oldest pilot has been 85 and youngest at 9! We have had students from the East and West coast, as well as from Canada and Mexico!
Happy Landings!
