It delivers a comprehensive view of the system, including design, composition, parts, functionality and troubleshooting, and will allow you to recognize, diagnose and resolve any potential anomalies in operation.
Our Owner / Operator Course provides expert knowledge about flight in icing conditions, to enable you to become a safer pilot, and gain more utility and value from your aircraft. Our session also looks at system design, effective use, maintenance and troubleshooting.
Aaron Marshall - Cessna 206 Owner
"You don’t want to get into icing if you don’t have any ice protection. If you don’t have ice protection, you end up not using the airplane half the year.
I wouldn’t bother owning a traveling airplane like the Bonanza without TKS®. [It] gives a peace of mind, particularly because when you do need to use the system, you can tell it’s working really well."
