BRCC

We currently have nine people signed up for this class, which is more than enough to go forward with it. Still have seats open if you should wish to attend.

Hey there! I'm happy to announce this year's dates and information for the Light Sport Repairman course offered by our college. For general information, please refer to this link: https://sites.google.com/a/email.vccs.edu/brcc-aviation-maintenance/light-sport Tuition costs are based on 5 credit hours and state of residence: http://www.brcc.edu/classes/tuition/tuition-rates/index.html Registration begins the 19th of March, but it's not too early to apply for admission if you are fairly certain you will attend. https://apply.vccs.edu/oa/launch.action If you desire more information regarding registration process or administrative questions, please contact Melissa McElveen at (540) 453-2224 or 'McElveenM@brcc.edu' If you have any questions regarding the program in general please feel free to contact me at (540) 453-2508 or 'dennisk@brcc.edu' Additionally, we're very excited to have an Avid Flyer "C" model available for this year's course. The aircraft was donated to our program from the estate of the gentleman who built, flew, and then stored it downstairs in the family room for the past 15-17 years. It's in great shape and ready for some TLC! NOTE: I opted to start a new subject instead of continuing in CT_MATT's thread from last year. I thought this might be less confusing.

Both letters of interpretation were discussed at length during the class. The FAA does audit our class. POC is Edsel Ford and the prop question was posed to him while he was here. There is a lot of material covered in the three week class and based on the individual's minimal experience, knowledge and non-existent rudimentary computer skills, it's not surprising he called you in a "concerned and confused" state of mind. What is surprising is that you ASSUME an awful lot for not having attended the course to hear what was actually taught. My name and contact information is clearly posted above, but you never even extended the professional courtesy of contacting us to discuss the issue and receive an explanation that would clarify matters. We are free to disagree and doing so in a polite and cordial manner will make for a more pleasant exchange of ideas and opinions. "BRCC, I guess you're not going to correct you're teachers????????? Absolutely shameful! You're class should be audited by the FAA." Have a nice day.

Sorry to hear you regret recommending our class to “Mr. J”. We’re happy to hear he has someone local and knowledgeable to assist him.

She has already blocked the time period from 5-30 June 2018 for our students and will keep it open until 30 days prior (4 May 2018). This is a good deal for a couple of guys if they intend to take the Rotax and LSARM classes.

Thank you, Tip! You guys were a fun class and very low maintenance. Based on your personal recommendation I also added Suzy's bnb to our lodging list.

Enough people have signed up for the course to officially say it's a go! Still have plenty of seats open.

Tango, tango, tango.

Still plenty of seats open.

We're starting to get more phone calls as the days go by. I'll be out of the office for the rest of the week, but feel free to call 540-453-2306 and speak to Fred if you have any questions regarding course content. We have seats for 25 people!

Hi Folks, I just spoke with Tip over the phone in regards to our LSRM-A program and this year's tentative dates are 12 through 30 June. In the past we have also had Rotax Service/Maintenance training held the week before LSRM. This year we have tentatively scheduled the Rotax class for 6-9 June and it is taught by Dean Vogel from Lockwood Aviation. The links that BravoFoxtrot provided in a post above (and included below for redundancy) are active and in the process of being updated for 2017. https://sites.google...nce/light-sport https://www.brcc.edu...craft-mechanic/ It would be extremely beneficial for anyone wishing (or even thinking) of attending the class to register now. It costs nothing and helps to cut some of the administrative work prior to the start date. Please call 540-453-2224 or contact Melissa McElveen McElveenM@brcc.edu to register. Classes are taught on the main campus and labs are held at our AMT hangar located at the Shenandoah Regional Airport (SHD). Hangar availability is almost non-existent, but there is normally plenty of tie down spots available if you wish to fly in. For further information or questions please feel free to contact me and be sure to share this with your friends!!
