Thank you for visiting University Aviation!

I am the Instructor for University Aviation's' upcoming Private Pilot course.  My name is Andrew Manfolk. My purpose is to guide you through the coursework required to pass your FAA Private Pilot written exam. 

This is not a pile of videos you are left alone with. You get the lessons, live instructor hours, and individual tutoring when a topic might require a different angle of explanation. Everyone learns differently, and all students have different backgrounds and levels of experience. My job is to make your learning experience smooth and efficient. Zero frustration. Great Results. 

About Your Instructor:

I became a Flight Instructor at the Age of 18 (no.. my parents did not have money). I went on to Captain the SA-227, Boeing 727, and the Boeing 737-800NG. I also flew the DC-10. 

I have trained hundreds of pilots ranging from 1st time flyers to experienced pilots training for their Airline Transport Pilot Certificate. CFI MEI BGI FE ATPL 

Your Course Experience:

As you progress through this course you will master numerous skills.  You will know how to  control an airplane. You know how to read weather reports. You know how to safely depart to a far off destination with only a chart in your lap, and a compass on your dash. 

The regulations do not pluck any strings of passion with their poetry, however, they are straightforward and necessary. Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR,s) are largely inspired by past fatalities and smoking holes in the ground. This makes the FAR's very interesting. Learn them, and life is better. 

When you become a licensed pilot, you become the master of your ship (Pilot in Comand). You are not just flying it, you are wearing that aircraft. It is an extension of you. It obeys you. You make decisions which are safe and prudent. The day you pass your test you will written exam you are very near to getting your license. You know stuff and you do things. 

For Your Class:

I find it helpful to interact via zoom with the class and with individuals. This helps me to clarify subjects in my lesson presentations for the students.  Classes presented in person allow many questions to be cleared up for the entire class at that time. Class discussion on the topic often ensues, resulting in deeper discussions on the topic. We can accomplish this online.  I will coordinate tutoring and online groups through email.

• Ground school built around the FAA Private Pilot knowledge test
