Flight Courses and Documents
For some people, flying is a way to get away from the daily grind and stress of life. The escape from everyday worries and problems is very therapeutic and reduces stress. This can be particularly important if you live in an urban environment like Nashville, where everyday life can be rather hectic.
At The CAVU Pilot, we offer a great way to see the world from a whole different perspective. Flying provides a view of the ground from several thousand feet in the air. With many landmarks and features visible, flying shows you how small and insignificant everyday problems really are.
Learning how to fly is a very worthwhile and enjoyable experience. At The CAVU Pilot, we believe that flying is something that every person in Nashville should do at least once in their life.
