Not that I'm aware of. Pierre Smith in Louisville, GA is probably the closest and he's a member of this list.

Default Hi Don......

Jan Bussell has both a -6 and -6A, located near Orlando. I've seen good reports from satisfied customers of his.

Default Transition training for a 9A, anybody?

I will need transition training by the end of this year for a 9A (preferably with CS). It doesn?t matter that much where it is, because I have to fly there from Europe anyway (best on the east coast though). Does anybody know somebody with a 9A, doing transition training?

Regards, Tonny.
