We will help you understand what’s changed in aviation since you last took the controls and brush up on your aviation knowledge. AOPA developed the Rusty Pilots program in partnership with local flight training providers in order to create the best environment for getting you back in the air and a part of the general aviation community. – It is easier than most people think – no FAA check ride or test. – You might not even need a medical. – Plus, you’ll get two to three hours of ground instruction toward your flight review!
