Human Factors Course. Neil Wickens has offerd to organise another Human Factors course in the near future. I guess it has to be "near future" as time to complete the course is running out if you want to be up-to-date and continue flying legally. He would like to conduct the course at a time and location to suit as many participants as possible. Please get in touch with him and let him know your preferences if you wish to take part.

Human Factors Course. I now have in stock a good supply of the DH Training
Human Factors books at $20 retail. This has a practice exam and all the information to pass the required exam. I would also ask any pilots who wish to take the exam contact me prior to arrange a proper briefing on the subject.
