Gunfighters Clinic set for January

Latest update January 22, 2024

Time sure flies and so do we. This is our 12th annual formation clinic organized to prepare the Mooney Caravan pilot for the skills necessary to safely and masterfully participate in the Mooney Caravan to Oshkosh. Our Yuma clinic has evolved over the years and is focused on preparing our Element Lead pilots and Safety Observers. However, we welcome newcomers and returning formators to our clinic for initial, recurrent, and proficiency flying.

Again, we have the support and partnership of the MCAS Yuma Air Traffic control and Million Air FBO. The winter weather in Yuma is fantastic and our operations at the Marine Air Base affords us to view (and hear) a lot of military aircraft in operation. Our MOAs (Mooney Operation Areas) have sufficient capacity and ingress/egress routes time-tested for efficiency and safety.
