Helicopter Pilot Student Training Kits & Cool Brand New Gear

Brand new, different, never offered before. We're adding packages for private pilot, commercial pilot, certified flight instructor. In the pro pilot we've had together for a couple of weeks now, we're going to show you this. So we're going to have gear again for private pilot, commercial pilot, certified flight instructor and pro pilot. So another quick look. People are enjoying the fact that they finally get to see themselves up on the Hog Hogs Wall of fame. So we're gonna give you a little shot of some more people. Cause we've had people saying hey, I know I'm up there, but I haven't seen it in a video yet. So we're gonna keep highlighting the Hogs Wall of fame as we make fresh videos and fresh content. Cause people enjoy seeing themselves up there, right? I mean, why wouldn't you? It's a fun deal that after you pass your checkride, private commercial instrument or cfi, we get you up on the Hogs wall of fame and send you a no go button. So let's head over here at the private level. You're just starting out, you know you're going for, you've made the decision, maybe you've had your intro. I'm going for private pilot. I'm not going to stop. So we've included all the basics. There might be some things you might want to add or change, but to give you what I think you really ought to have and then some extra goodies to help carry this stuff along and look cool while you're doing it. So private level, you have to learn with the e6b and the plotter and some people are going to snit their nose and go, ah, nobody uses that anymore. You have to learn at the private level. You will be able to use foreflight and your iPad for the more advanced stuff. But the case of say our examiner, he lets you use the iPad on your private pilot checkride, but he wants a chart as a backup with a line drawn on it with your landmarks for your cross country planning. He still wants privates to be taught the old fashioned way. Know how the basics are done, get that good situational awareness and then he will allow you to use the iPad. So we'll talk about more of that in a minute. So that those are basics. Pilot logbook. Once you start flying, gotta have a pilot logbook. Private pilot pts, you must have this. This is the outline of all the knowledge areas. You're gonna have to know the tolerances for your flight. Not enough instructors in flight schools who are always pushing this. You need to be working through this. Your instructor needs to be working through it and you need to be working through it together with your instructor. Practical test standards. And of course any of these things or most of these things you can have electronic versions and that's great. I think having both is best. Right? That's my opinion. 2024, 2024 FAR AIM manual. You need that at the private level. You're going to need a new one every year. It's great on an I, on an iPad or an iPhone electronic device, but I can actually look stuff up faster in here. So it's nice to have the hard copy Helicopter flying Handbook. You must have the FAA says as a student, as a private, as a commercial, as an instrument, as a cfi, as a DPE or an examiner, you must have this book and you must be working through this book and be familiar with the knowledge in this book because that's the basics of all our training is based on the helicopter flying Handbook. Private pilot study guide. This is 400 pages. Four 80 pages, 80 plus pages. 400 questions of things an examiner can ask you on a private pilot checkride. It's built spiral bound. We built this, we made this so you can open it up on the table. It's got room to write in. Each chapter is duplicated so you can look at the first chapter, go through and write in your own answers. And then the same questions are duplicated in each chapter with the correct answer in there for you. So you can test your own knowledge and then check it with the proper answers. And this has got a whole bunch of stuff. 400 possible questions examiner may ask you on a checkride. We're including this. This is an E board. Kick ass knee boards, I think is what he calls them badass knee boards. Gentleman that sent me, he sent me two of these. One of them we gave away during a live event. This one I've been using in the helicopter. You got to have an E board and I've looked at some others out there and I'm like, you know what? I like the one that he shipped me. I've ordered another one for myself and then I placed another order for five more. So we're going to be adding these to these current packages for this holiday special. And if people like them, we'll probably keep it with the future packages. Nice thing about this is old school clipboard. Put your checklist on here during startup. And then the new ones I ordered have a strap across so you can use that to help you go through the checks. The checklist because in the beginning you're kind of nervous. And we just had a big problem with an overspeed because a student got out of sequence. This is a good way to keep yourself on track. And then look underneath. You want the iPad, Great. You just go underneath and right there is the place for your iPad. So depending on how you want to configure this, you can have the old school on top and have your iPad right there. You can pull this completely off if needed. I like this unit. I like what he's doing with these. And like I said, I just got online, I didn't like the others that I saw, so I ordered those. And then the hugs backpack, we're really happy with these. We've tried some different things. My daughter's boyfriend is a college student and I just got these and he saw one. He's like, dude, I need a new bag for college. And I go, do you want one? He looked it out and he goes, man, this is nice. And he's young and techie and he's up on what's cool. And he's like, man, this has got an actual laptop sleeve in there. You got a extra bag here for documents. And he pointed out this one's insulated for your drink. Nice unit. All this stuff fits in there nice. And later at the end of the video, Heather's going to show you how all of it packs nice and neatly, even the big pro special with a whole bunch of more stuff that's all included currently with the private. So let's go to commercial next. So for commercial pilot, we substitute the commercial and flight instructor pts. You might be going to see if. I'll see if I later. If you do. Great. You already got the PTS. Must have got to be working through the PTS. So there's that. We left out the E6B and plotter because you should be at the commercial level now. You should already have those, but why not Faraim 2024, you probably haven't grabbed yours yet. It's the end of 2023. So there's that helicopter flying book handbook again, because we need it at student level, private level, commercial level, CFI level and examiner level. Private pilot study guide. Snooch your nose. Your private and your commercial checkrides are very similar. Everything at the commercial level, they're going to ask you the same stuff, but they want you to know it more crisp, more clean to a higher standard. I'll guarantee you this book is going to help you at the commercial level because you got to know all that Private pilot stuff. And I'll tell you, in my 23 years, people mess up because they forget the private stuff and they're not honing in on it. They just go, well, what do I got to know for a commercial? Every single thing you had to know for private plus. And even better than plus your commercial private limit privileges limitations. It's going to help you get ready for the checkride. Trust me. Private commercial, cfi, they start the same way. What do you have to have on you? What do you got to be current to fly all that stuff? Again, we'll add the new fancy knee board along with that. You might have one. It's this current package. Donate to a friend, give your friend, you're giving your buddy a checklist. Again, I'm going to be harping on startups checklists, going through things so you don't do a $50,000 damage repair to an aircraft from doing an overspeed or other bad things that can happen. And of course the backpack as well, along with the current commercial special. So let's reconfigure for cfi. All right, next CFI package. We designed this as though, let's say you're the person getting ready to make the plunge. You know you're going for it and you know you're going off the street to CFI. So for the CFI, we re included plotter E6B. You have to teach with these, right? You got to teach your private students with them. You need a hard copy. We threw the logbook back in both private because you're going to need this at your private level. Then you'll need to use it to work with your students when you're working as a cfi, the commercial pilot and CFI pts. So you're covered from private through cfi. You have it to work on your own ratings again. The FAR AIM 2024 helicopter flying handbook. Yes, again, because you have to have it. Everybody needs it. Private Pilot study guide. You're going to use it to private, you're going to use it during the commercial. And then as a cfi, you got to teach all that stuff. Still going to be good as a cfi. I just did a CFI and he was like, oh my God, this helped me a bunch. Last two CFIs, they liked going through that good stuff. So in addition CFI level, you need the Helicopter Instructor's Book handbook, FAA publication. So again, it goes through the stuff you need to teach the maneuvers and all the basics and poh and all that kind of stuff. But they point out what you're going to see as instructor and what the common mistake students are. So you'll need a copy of that to be the best you can be. And then you're going to need Aviation Instructors Handbook because you're going to have to know the fois Fundamentals of instructing. This is a must. First thing they're going to hit with you on your CFI checkride most likely will be fois. If you don't go through the fois, you can't continue on with the checkride. So did I mention the. I did. I think again, I'm gonna keep harping on this slow, smooth, methodical checklist. Step by step. Everything has to be right. Patch and then cfi. Or I'm sorry, backpack. Backpack for the cfi. Again, we like this thing. I've already got the first order spoken for. I ordered five more because I thought these people are going to want these. And we'll get one more package and then we'll have Heather come over and pack it up. So there is cfi. So voila. If you're going to go for the pro membership, that's where we're going to add the addition of the Hogs ball cap. We went ahead and ordered another case of these. We order 12 at a time. We've been through two already. It's a nice hat. It's an expensive hat. Everybody's been enjoying this. I'm not buying cheapies. I'm buying the good stuff. And people have been loving them. So at the pro level, you get everything we just went through for CFI with the addition of the Hogs ball cap, she's going to pack it up again. So she's going to show you and I'll just bore you like I do most of the time in videos. While she packs that up, she's going to show you how you can fit everything in this bag. Again, we did it in one video so far, and I was talking the last time we did it, before I knew it, boom, she had the thing loaded up. But we wanted to see if you can fit all this stuff into the Hogs backpack. And let's see what else. So this is our Thanksgiving special. Our intention is to keep this going, and again, we're trying products and, you know, combinations of things and what people are really liking. We've done some flight jackets and we got some other gear on the way, so we'll keep honing and, you know, factoring it in. One thing we're going to do is we have a couple of scratch and dents. Over here we have a backpack that we ordered that we have the flight patch on and I decided I like this one much better. So we're going to do a giveaway soon on that backpack with the Hogs flight patch on it. And then we have a helicopter flying handbook that came through. It has kind of a crease in it. Haven't been super impressed with all the stuff I've ordered. Sometimes they come in with bent edges and creases and things. So we're going to do some giveaways soon on scratch and dent items. It's like I don't want to ship it to the customer because it's got a, a crease or something. But we'll it'll be brand new books with just a little bit of an issue. We're going to give some of those away. Boom. In that amount of time she got all that wrapped up, that whole full table of stuff packed in the Hogs backpack. So I don't know what else to tell you other than we'll put links below. We're planning on putting some links below not only for our memberships for the for the holiday special, but also if you're a current member, you already got yearly or you got pro or euro monthly and you just want the gear. We're going to go over and we're going to create some links. We'll put those down below as well where you can just add the pack the backpack for the package you want for this one currently.
