Eagle Ultralight Flight School Page

Welcome to the Eagles Nest Flight School.

The Flight school is in 6 Phases

Phase One-Ground school.

In These classroom sessions, you'll receive instruction in micrometerology, aerodynamiics and Federal Air Regulations.

Phase Two-Taxi Trainer.

During This Phase, you'll practice taxiing and learn ground-handling skills in an Eagle without the main wing surface. No unexpected takeoffs can occur in this "wingless" Eagle.

Phase Three-Simulator.

Experience sensations similar to actual flight as you ride in an Eagle tethered to a moving platform. You'll learn maximum pitch and roll movements while "Flying" at an altitude of two feet.

Phase Four-Two-place Tow Trainer.

Ride tandem with your instructor in this two-place trainer. With the engine removed, the trainer approximates the true feeling of the Eagle, allowing you to be come familiar with slow-speed low-level ultralight flight. The silence of unpowered flight permits conversation between you and your instructor.

Phase Five-Single Pilot Tow.

You fly solo in an unpowered Eagle towed behind a car. Learn takeoffs, landings and low-level flights while receiving raido commands from your instructor in the tow vehicle. The reassuring tether line confirms that you are not actually alone. Since the speed of the tow vehicle controls your altitude, the instructor can bring you gently back to earth at any moment by merely slowing down. In this phase, You can master basic Eagle pilot techniques before your first powered solo flight.

Phase Six-Powered Solo Flight.

With the knowledge and skills you've acquired through the previous phases of training, you'll approach this exciting moment with real confidence. Althought your instructor will continue using radio guidance, once your Eagle leaves the ground, you will truly be alone. You'll take to the air and be one with your Eagle, rejoicing in the spirit of flight !!!
