Mission Pilot School Registration Opened

The time has arrived -- we are now accepting registrations for the 2011 Mission Pilot School. The mission pilot school will take a student who is a mission scanner standard all the way through the mission pilot training program, and have them ready for the F91 checkride in two weekends.

The requirements to attend are:

  • 190 hours PIC
  • Mission Scanner Standard Rating
  • A CAPF5 in a corporate aircraft

You may register if you currently meet these requirements, or will meet them by April 15th. Applicants who do not meet the above criteria by April 15th will be removed from the applicant list.

Registration closes on April 15th, after which point the most qualified applicants will be submitted to their respective group commanders for approval. All applicants will be notified by May 1st of their acceptance to the school.

As a reminder, the ground school dates are Jun 4-5 in Oakland and June 18-19 in Long Beach. All students must attend one of the two ground schools. The flight portion of the activity will take place on July 8-10 in Concord. Transportation to Concord will be funded, but transportation to the ground schools is not; further, all lodging costs are the student's responsibility.

Registration is only accepted via an online form, located here: https://sites.google.com/site/cawgmps/register

Please do not email your registration information; simply complete the form. We'll get back in touch with you by May 1st.
