Beech Bonanza- & Baron-Specific Flight Training

For Bonanza, A36, A36TC, B36TC and turbonormalized are a specialty

Not Currently Accepting New Students

Unfortunately, Tom’s current “real-job” workload at ABS prevents him from traveling and severely limits the time he can get away for flight instruction — even if you come to him at Wichita, Kansas. We highly suggest you complete one of the American Bonanza Society’s Beechcraft Pilot Proficiency Program (BPPP) online ground schools

– The Beechcraft Essential Systems and Techniques course (“BPPP BEST”) for Initial systems, procedures and techniques training or if you’ve not had type-specific or ATP-level systems training in your Baron or Travel Air. 

– Legacy BPPP if the BEST course your your specific model of Baron or Travel Air is not yet available.

– BPPP FOCUS to build on the skills you learned in BEST or LEGACY training, for a shorter refresher course.

Then fly with one of over 100 BPPP-accredited flight instructors near your home or your favorite flying destination around the United States or in Australia. It can be Tom if you wish, but again, he’d like to apologize for his limited availability.

Thanks for your interest, and your patience

(We will update this page when Tom is available to resume traveling to provide personalize flight instruction.)
