🔍 What Is a Flight Review?

An FAA Flight Review is required every 24 calendar months to act as Pilot in Command.

Each review includes:

• Minimum of 1 hour ground instruction
  
  

• Minimum of 1 hour flight instruction
  
  

• Review of applicable FAA regulations (14 CFR 61 & 91)
  
  

• Maneuvers and procedures appropriate to the pilot certificate held
  
  

Every flight review at Vess Aviation is customized — no two reviews are the same.
