Canyonlands Safari*-Call to inquire about price

This aviation safety seminar based out of Bluff, Utah will concentrate on confined area approaches, the emergency maneuvers, “canyon turn”, combined with expanding the skill of “you found the airstrip now what!” Also, aerial surveillance, determining safe approaches and departures - and determining where the abort point for that airstrip is, your aircraft, and the conditions of the environment!   This advanced course will include 12-17 hours of dual flight instruction within a new environment that will take your breath away. 

A $1000 non-refundable deposit is required for each student in the Safari.

A $700 non-refundable deposit is required for each guest

 

* Safari, defined as: a journey or expedition. 

New and exciting times!  Each safari is changing and taking on a life of it's own.

Lori MacNichol developed the Canyonlands Safari in the year 2006.  She has found that each seminar has taken a path of it's own. As the general aviation community surrounding the  4 corners area (Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, Utah) began inquiring and attending the aviation safety seminars, we have found that each seminar has changed in schedule of events and the area is abundant with backcountry airstrips!  Please call to inquire for more information on your seminar.
