J&H Aerospace training and coaching
In addition to the Basic and Full versions of Indoor Flight University, we offer online and in-person coaching. Online coaching is through Google or Zoom, in 1 hr increments at $75/hr. We limit these sessions to no more than 3 sessions per week and no more than 2 hrs each. All sessions must be by prior agreement so that they may interface with our operations schedules. Coaching is first-come first-served. At present there is no additional charge should your full team wish to participate in a session.
In-person coaching, like online coaching sessions, requires prior agreement from us to interface with our schedules. Teams and individuals receiving in-person coaching are responsible for our travel expenses to/from the coaching site and a $600/day coaching rate, plus any materials required for the coaching activity such as kits, adhesives, and tooling. At present we do not have any site rental agreements, so training recipients will need to schedule a suitable venue for building and/or flying. We do carry AMA insurance and an AMA Contest Director licence which enables us to access the AMA Flying Site Insurance program.
