IASCO Flight Training ; <br />Kittitas County Application for Operating Commercial Services �irGe, F�r�„r renramrs <br />Management of Program <br />IFT will use a staff of 10-20 FAA certified flight instructors managed by an FAA approved assistant chief <br />flight instructor to deliver flight training. This will also include pre and postflight briefings. However, <br />CWU will conduct the ground school; thus, IFT will not need classroom space for that activity. Instructors <br />will be qualified in a manner appropriate to the course they are teaching pursuant to the FAA -approved <br />course training course outline. <br />Using an agreement to use CWU's Aviation Training Center, IFT will have continuous use of adequate <br />office and briefing space to accommodate training of 120 students and necessary staff. Restrooms and <br />seating are also available. IFT also has agreement from CWU to use their leased ramp space to park and <br />operate training airplanes. Generally, airplanes will be stored in hangars at night, but given good <br />weather conditions, may also be parked on the ramp overnight. <br />(FT adheres to strict training operations and safety procedures that are part of standard practice, and <br />contained in our Pilot Training Operations Manual (PTOM). The PTOM details many areas of flight <br />training related to normal and abnormal operations, as well as safety procedures and weather <br />minimums/maximums. <br />In addition to the PTOM, IFT uses other documents to aid with training: <br />Maneuvers manuals <br />Checklists <br />Expanded checklists <br />o Study guides <br />Instructor training courses <br />Administrative staff and dispatcher training manuals/guides <br />IFT's training practices and standards have been affirmed by our FAA Flight Standards District Office <br />(FSDO) in Sacramento at the close of a recent annual base inspection. Below is an excerpt from a letter <br />from IFT's Principle Operations Inspector after the inspection. <br />"Again, as 1 did lest year, 1 commend the professionalism of your staff.
