Saturday, May 16 9:00 AM - 12:30 PM?CDT Buffalo, MN Hosted by Great Minnesota Aviation Gathering (GMAG), sponsored by the Minnesota Pilots Association. Instructed by AOPA Foundation Rusty Pilots Presenter William Dubois. Life?may have gotten in the way, but the dream of flight can be yours again. Returning to the skies is not as difficult as most rusty pilots think. We are inviting you back in the cockpit and will help you get there. Come and participate in this Rusty Pilots program with fellow lapsed pilots. We will help you understand what s changed in aviation since you last took the controls and brush up on your aviation knowledge. AOPA developed the Rusty Pilots program in partnership with local flight training providers in order to create the best environment for getting you back in the air and a part of the general aviation community. - It is easier than most people think no FAA check ride or test. - You might not even need a medical. - Plus, you ll get two to three hours of ground instruction toward your flight review!
