Welcome to Max Trescott's Pilot Learning center. Max is the 2008 National CFI of the Year and an aviation author.
He was the first to offer online training courses for G1000-equipped aircraft, and again is the first to offer courses for the Perspective-equipped Cirrus Design SR22. The courses provide the ground training that you need to successfully prepare for VFR and IFR transition flights into these aircraft. Together, the VFR and IFR courses have more than six hours of materials, significantly longer than any CD-ROM training available. And these courses don't just teach you the knobs; they're filled with insights and tips from top instructors that teach daily in glass cockpit aircraft.
The VFR courses are taught by Max Trescott, author of Max Trescott's G1000 Glass Cockpit Handbook, and Torea Rodriguez, a S.F. Bay area CFII. The IFR course is taught by Max Trescott
