Northwest Mooney Caravan Formation Clinic

Join the Northwest Mooney Caravan Formation Clinic, hosted in Pendleton Oregon May 14-17, 2020! This clinic is intended for the purpose of qualifying Mooney pilots who are new to formation flying and who intend to fly with the 2020 Mooney Caravan to Oshkosh. All pilots must attend at least one formation clinic to meet the annual formation and/or proficiency training requirement to qualify to fly with the Mooney Caravan.  Please note that pilots who are registered for the caravan will have priority. Experienced and/or Carded formation pilots will be paired with new pilots to serve as safety pilots.

Clinic activities:

• Caravan qualification: Mooney 2 ship, intro and basic proficiency (newbie)
• Mooney 2-3 ship, recurrent training/proficiency.

This clinic is also open to aircraft of similar performance: Cirrus, Bonanza, Comanche, Arrow, Tiger, RVs, etc.
