That would be great but the company's 360 was involved in an
off-field landing. They decided not to repair the plane (this was
covered on the list here a year ago, or so). Therefore, the company
has no 360 in which to train. It was always my intention to train in
the company 360 to minimize the training I would need in my own plane.
<< ...or find
someone who can give you some instruction in their aircraft...>>
The company tells me that the instructors they know of who have
320/360s do not give instruction in their own planes. Last Sept. at
the fly-in, Don ("the" Don) told me that it is the company's policy
to give transition training in the customer's plane now that they
have no company 360. That appears to be the only option.
One more problem/question:
You can get coverage for the first 10 hours and landings for the 360
from Avemco. However, they do not cover bodily injury for someone
else in the plane, other than the pilot, during phase 1. To those of
you who have flown with an instructor for a few hours during phase 1,
how have you handled this? Have you just taken the risk?
