Instructors meeting at MacMaster March 25th 2006




Instructors meeting at MacMaster March 25th 2006
Hello Instructors from Lorna Novosel - SOSA CFI
The agenda for the Instructors' meeting to be held on March 25th is posted below. Although it looks rather structured, we really hope the day can be quite relaxed and informal. The main focus of the meeting is to make sure we all have the same information, and that everyone is comfortable with some new initiatives that were introduced last season (for example, the first exercise in the flight test includes facts from the POH which some of us may not have paid much attention to in our instructing). So, following this meeting, we will all be able to prepare our students for all aspects of the flight test.
Please note that you need to print out and bring some of the information that is on our website. In the case of the pre-solo test, you need to bring the completed test.
As we go through all of the information, let's try to think about how we can incorporate this into our everyday instruction. We will focus on this at the meeting as well.
Because it is a packed day, we have allowed only an hour for lunch. You may want to brown bag it, or Scott says there are a number of fast food places nearby (if you park in the pay lot, I'm not sure if you would have to pay again upon returning from lunch)
Looking forward to seeing as many of you as can make it on the 25th.



Lorna
