The Recurrent Clinic is specifically designed for returning pilots who are facing new challenges and seeking fresh material to continually stay ahead of their personal “flying curve.” As the topics discussed are continually changing and expanding, the Recurrent Clinic curriculum follows suit each year.
Coursework begins with an hour on current issues facing pilots, including FAA regulations, new equipment, accidents, and more. These topics are continuously refreshed, as needed.
Pilots will review a comprehensive presentation by pilot and meteorologist J. P. Dice about how to analyze weather data from the National Weather Service.
Following every new release from ForeFlight, BPT offers an updated course that keeps recurrent pilots up-to-speed and answers questions about the latest features in this revolutionary navigation software.
A new two-hour maintenance presentation by Craig Bailey includes a detailed walkaround of a Bonanza or Baron.
Many owners have new digital autopilots with questions on how they integrate with the rest of their avionics. Seasoned pilots Bill Hale and Mick Kaufman lead a new two-hour presentation on autopilots.
Finally, BPT Instructor Greg Ricca, MD continuously updates his presentation on aging pilots.
The Recurrent Course also features topics of interest including:
- Forced Landings – Energy management and a detailed look at managing forced landings with Hank Canterbury.
- IFR Charts — A great refresher on IFR procedures; what is expected of you and scenarios that emphasize operating safely.
- Icing — Not theory, but practical application of the things you know –and should know – in order to mitigate risk.
- Engine Monitoring — Application and interpretation of modern monitors; gasp! Lean of peak operation. Conversions.
- Human Factors — This is all about “man vs. machine”: keeping in touch with what your brain is doing to avoid traps when the heat is on.
- Multi Engine Single Engine management – This course on “theory and practice” is designed specifically for Baron, Travel Air and Duke pilots
- G1000 — This highly participatory course discussed how to take full advantage of the G1000 glass-cockpit capability in a cross country.
Wouldn’t it be fantastic to get away for a weekend to talk about, learn about and think about airplanes with highly experienced instructors – and pilots just like you? Think of BPT as a “Summer camp for adults, with airplanes.”
