Pilot reviews

Verified pilot · Passed · Aug 2017

Leigh is an aviation expert and knows a lot. He expects you to know a lot but also understands that you need not get 100% to pass. He was very fair and took the time to explain the items I got wrong - facilitating learning. There are things that are deal breakers, but if you do your preparation properly and come prepared, you are OK.
