joshroyse.com Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 (edited) Hey guys! I just wanted to post an opportunity for my flight schools next coast to coast world record flight scheduled for July. There are two seats open. You will be paying 10k a piece to be a part of the team and we plan to build about 70 hours. It's a good opportunity to build up hours and experience in navigation and just some good ol' fun. It would be nice to be a world record holder in the industry we all love My current instructor wanted me to do some recruiting for him, so if you are interested let me know and I can provide you with more specific information on the flight plan, exact date of departure, ect. edit: I should probably note that it is a coast to coast speed record. haha. Here is the school's website: www.usaacademy.com Cheers and safe flying! Josh Royse Edited June 15, 2009 by joshroyse.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDHelicopterPilot Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 These guys actualy made a stop at Yuma International Airport. I happened to be working that day. They wasted no time there as they were in a time crunch to beat the marine layer in San Diego. JD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rotormandan Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Which aircraft are they goin to be in? It sounds like a lot of fun, just a bit expensive if they're taking the R44 again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshroyse.com Posted June 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 It sounds slightly expensive to me too. I am actually working with Johan Nurmi on reducing the price. It is in the R44 (but hey we get NVG experience too). He will likely reduce the price as much as possible in view of the economic recession. I'll calculate the estimated fuel cost since I have the route on hand and then I will ask him to lower the price as much as I can according to that fuel cost. I'll keep you updated.
