RAY | Checkride

The mission
Ray traveled from Las Vegas to Sport Aviation Center in Carson City to get checked out in our aircraft here and take his check ride after training in Las Vegas.
Ray comments on his experience
“After doing a bunch of research on the net, I found Paul Hamilton in Carson City…I contacted Paul several times over the phone and through email over several months.
There was a backlog here for DPE’s in Las Vegas where I live, I wanted to do my check ride now not continue to wait! I was ready.
Paul promptly returned both email and phone calls. We made the date 03-13-2013. I trained with CFI Earl Kessler for the two hours required time so he could recommend me to Paul for my Checkride.
Weather could not have been more perfect!!! We took off around 0930 Wednesday morning at around 1100 Paul shook my hand saying “Congratulations you’re now a new Sport Pilot!”
What a feeling… all the months of preparation had finally paid off…I have to say Paul was, in a word, simply the best! Easy to communicate, very patent, really fun to fly with and makes learning to fly a true Joy!
After the Checkride we went over a few things and did the paperwork I then had my temporary Sport Pilot license in hand.
I even had him sign the book “Sport Pilot Check Ride” that I had studied to get to this point, That Paul had written, (highly recommend for all sport pilots). I figured It may be a collector’s item one day!!!!
In closing, thank you, Paul! Really appreciate all your amazing instruction. Most Respectfully.” – Ray. Las Vegas, NV
