REFLECTOR: Transition training

[Scott Baker]

MessageMilt,
Your response to Al makes me very upset.  Velocity has contributed several thousand dollars to this event and is supporting it by our attendance and volunteering to be speakers at the seminar.  You did not mention to Al that we are providing the ground school portion of the training program at the Velocity Builder's Symposium free, and that we are offering a $100 flight gift certificate off flight training to those who attend the ground school.  To imply that Velocity is not supporting the program is wrong.  If your motive in drafting your reply to Al is to lay guilt onto Velocity, it is not not working ... and in fact, it is making me rather angry.

  Al:

  Scott Baker, Scott Swing and Duane Swing determined the cost of bringing a plane to Dallas together  with the cost of an instructor would be an inflated price of $3,000. Those three men declined to spend those funds. The same three men had no problem in taking your $30,000 for your kit.

  I am trying to reason with them by suggesting the training be done in the plane in which they plan to arrive in Dallas and not bring a second plane. I have not yet heard from them on that proposal.

  Will you still attend?

  Milt.

    Anybody;



    Did your insurance writer require that you have the factory 'transition training'; or was just a matter of total hours, dual hours in type, solo hours in type - or what?



    Al
