Hi! I'm Nicolas Shelton, a writer & graphic artist here at Boldmethod!
I'm a flight instructor dedicated to finding simple explanations for complex topics. I started flying while I was a senior in high school and got my Private Pilot's license a month after graduating. I learned to fly in the small (yet forgiving) Cessna 152. These days I mostly fly Piper Archer Tx's, Warriors, Arrows, and Seminoles.
I am currently attending Purdue University, where I am majoring in Professional Flight & minoring in Atmospheric Science. Outside of my classes, I am involved with many student organizations on campus and enjoy film-making in my free time.
Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) is a way for you to receive a more accurate GPS signal onboard your plane for all types of navigation: departure, en route, and arrival.
In order to fly into Oshkosh from Thursday, July 21 1200-2000 CDT, and Friday July 22 through Sunday, July 31, 2022 0700-2000 CDT, you'll need to make an IFR slot reservation. Arrival slot reservations are avaliable beginning Monday, July 18 at 1200CDT, but you won't be assigned until 72 hours before you plan to fly in/out.
Knowing about endorsements you're giving or receiving is essential. If you're an instructor, you'll want to be well informed about what you're signing. And as a student, you should know what is going on in YOUR logbook.
