Hi,

I need a checkout in my new to me RV6. Based in Camarillo.

Thanks,

Fly to Portland, OR, rent a car, drive to Mike Seager's home town and get a checkout in the form of transition training then return to Camarillo and fly your plane.

Hi Craig,
I used to live in Newbury Park...had my Pulsar XP parked in Camarillo for a couple years prior to moving out of the state. When I bought my Pulsar (and prior to my first flight in my RV-7A), I needed to get some dual instruction. Cost is always a consideration, so for the RV, I opted not to fly somewhere (like what Bob mentioned, above). My insurance company only wanted 3 hours of dual instruction in an RV, and it did not have to be with a CFI. The person providing the instruction had to have at least 100 hours in their RV to make the insurance company feel comfortable. I was happy to see that the RV is pretty easy to fly, so in my case, I was fine with the 3 hours. Depending on your experience, you may want to consider going the same route. Good luck.
