Courses at Lander airport for aviation enthusiasts

Central Wyoming College’s Lander Center is offering a pair of courses in May for aviation enthusiasts.

 

Flying for Cockpit Companions is offered Saturday, May 12 from 8 a.m. to noon at the Larry Hastings Terminal at the Lander Airport.

 

Instructor Andy Gramlich has designed the class to train non-pilots who frequently fly with friends and family members to function as cockpit crew members. The $30 course covers aircraft control, navigations and radio communications. Students will gain an understanding of flight operations and improve their enjoyment of flying.

 

On Saturday, May 19, Gramlich gives an introduction to Microsoft Flight Simulator X. This course is designed to provide a working knowledge of the flight simulator controls and familiarize students with the basic options of the software. Visit all parts of the world and fly in all kinds of weather without ever leaving your seat.

 

This $30 course is scheduled from 8 a.m. to noon at the Lander Airport’s Larry Hastings Terminal.
