AOPA to host first Back to Your Roots seminar at NBAA

By General Aviation News Staff · October 24, 2016 ·

The Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) will host the first Back To Your Roots seminar at the National Business Aviation Association‘s Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition.

The initiative, part of AOPA’s You Can Fly program, will provide a refresher on VFR procedures tailored to professional pilots who want to fly for fun again. The seminar is free of charge and breakfast will be provided.

“Most of us learned to fly in a small aircraft and remember the excitement and joy we felt as we realized our dreams of becoming a pilot,” said Director of AOPA’s Flight Training Initiative Chris Moser. “While most professional pilots move on to bigger and faster aircraft, they still hold a special place for that little bug smasher, and AOPA developed Back To Your Roots to get them operating in the ‘non-pressured’ flight levels again.”
