Company Overview and Financial Practices

1.1 Mission Statement: WINGS Flight School was established in 2009 with the mission to provide high
quality flight training and unsurpassed customer service in helping clients achieve their flying goals,
with focus on safety, convenience and fun.

1.2 WINGS Flight School Staff

1.3 Flight Safety

1.3.1 Flight safety is everyone’s responsibility. Staff and clients are encouraged to immediately bring any
safety related issues, or any potential safety issues to the Chief’s or Manager’s attention.

1.4 Flight Instructor Status

1.4.1 For the purposes of this manual, all certificated flight instructors, whether full-time employees, part
time employees, or independent contractors, are required to comply with the procedures in this
manual. This is necessary because of the high degree of standardization and supervision required to
conduct flight operations without undue risk to the clients, staff, and general public. It does not
imply any status used by the IRS for defining employee status.

1.5 Payment Policy

1.5.1 Payment for Services is due at the time the service is rendered.
1.5.2 Pre-payments are encouraged as a way to better serve clients by guaranteeing availability of funds
for training and provide a discount on aircraft rental when their balance is over $500. Unused
balances will be refunded on request, with the exception of VA provided funding.
1.5.3 Clients will be informed of the loan programs available for their flight training. Loans from these
programs will be administered according to the loan agreement.
1.5.4 Aircraft Flight Time. The Pilot is responsible for checking the current HOBBS/TACH time, to the
highest tenth, on the aircraft dispatch. HOBBS/TACH differences found prior to starting the aircraft
must be immediately reported to WINGS Staff for adjustment PRIOR TO FLIGHT. Unreported
differences are the Pilot’s responsibility. The Pilot will record on the aircraft dispatch, to the highest
tenth, the ending HOBBS/TACH time after shutting down the aircraft.
1.5.5 Fees at Other Airports. The Pilot is responsible for settling all landing, tie-down, handling, and/or any
other fees incurred en route or at the Pilot’s flight destination at the time they are incurred. If not
settled at that time, the Pilot will be charged a processing fee $25.00 for failure to comply with this
rule.

01 OCT 2021 2
1.5.6 24 Hour cancellation policy. Cancellations for any reason other than weather must be received at
least 24 hours in advance to avoid a late cancellation fee and an instructor late cancellation fee. Only
the instructor can weather-cancel an instructional flight.
1.5.7 WINGS reserves the right to rent any aircraft for which the Pilot is more than 15 minutes late for
Pilot’s scheduled time. Pilots must return the aircraft at the scheduled time. Late returns, which
impact WINGS rental operations or flight instruction, may result in additional charges.
1.5.8 WINGS will charge a returned check fee of $40.00 on all items returned by a client’s financial
institution.
1.5.9 There will be a charge of up to $25.00 for aircraft returned and not re-fueled, cleaned and left
“mission ready” after a flight.

1.6 Insurance Coverage

1.6.1 WINGS Flight School maintains liability insurance in the amount of $2,000,000 per occurrence,
limited to $100,000 per passenger and hull coverage with a deductible of $2500.00.
1.6.2 Insurance covers WINGS Flight School and does not preclude the insurance company from
subrogating claims against the Pilot in Command.
1.6.3 Renter’s Insurance is required effective October 1, 2021 for renters and students. A certificate of
insurance, naming WINGS Flight School as additional insured with a 10-day notice of cancellation
must be maintained on files with WINGS.

1.7 Facilities
1.7.1 Staff members will actively ensure the facility, aircraft, and ramp areas are kept clean. Dispose of all
outdated charts, regulations and used disposable products.

1.8 Terms and Definitions

The term “company” used in this manual refers to WINGS Flight School.
The term “PIC” refers to the Pilot in Command of the aircraft.
The term “Student” refers to someone who does not hold a Private, Commercial, or ATP certificate
appropriate to the aircraft category flown.

demonstrated satisfactory traffic patterns to an instructor. Students may then fly the remainder of
the solo cross-country requirements to other airports approved by the Chief Instructor. Prior to the
student’s first solo cross-country flight, the FAA Knowledge test must be completed and passed with
a satisfactory grade.

01 OCT 2021 12
6.3 Written Tests
6.3.1 Required written tests are detailed in Table 2.3.
6.3.2 All written exams will be documented on the Written Exam Answer Sheet, CTA or Flight Circle.
6.3.3 The minimum passing score on any test is 80 percent. An instructor will correct the test to 100
percent and review all deficient areas with the client prior to flight. Clients receiving less than 80%
on a written test will be referred to the Chief Instructor.
6.3.4 Questions should provide the client a self-paced study of all pertinent aspects of the subject material
and flow sequentially from the source documents.
6.3.5 Each aircraft open book test shall cover pertinent aspects of the aircraft systems, procedures, and
operating limits. Computing takeoff data, including weight and balance, takeoff, climb, cruise, and
landing data shall also be evaluated. Each aircraft closed book examination shall examine the
information on the reverse side of the Written Exam Answer Sheet.
6.3.6 Private pilot student pilots must pass the FAA Knowledge test prior to their solo cross county flight.

6.4 Runway Incursion Awareness

6.4.1 All training courses will emphasize Runway Incursion Awareness. As a minimum all aspects of
Advisory Circular 91-73 shall be covered with each client.
6.4.2 All self-announcements will be clear and concise. Do not use the term “the active” in lieu of runway
number.

6.5 Sterile Cockpit

6.5.1 During taxi, flight below 3000 ft. AGL (except in cruise), and any other flight regimes with high cockpit
workload, pilots will refrain from distracting, non-essential tasks, including conversations and any
other activities that might divert the student’s attention from flying the airplane. Special vigilance
will be maintained during taxi, takeoff, climb, descent and while in the pattern and high traffic areas
where there is increased risk of collision or pilot error.
6.5.2 Passengers are not allowed on instructional flights without prior permission of the Chief Instructor.
This is to prevent the additional distraction to the student during the increased workload of a
training environment. Passengers during training are restricted to cross country training flights.

7.1 Pilot Checkout Procedures

7.1.1 Our clients come to us with widely differing flight experience; however, there is no guarantee they
have ever been properly trained to fly general aviation aircraft. Our job is to conduct a thorough
checkout each and every time you fly with any of our clients. The existence of this company is
dependent on our safety record, which is a direct reflection of how well we conduct our training and
checkout programs. Flight training is a complex business that is continuously evolving and our
procedures and training programs need to evolve with them. We highly encourage your personal
input to make these programs better. Please bring any suggestions to the Chief Instructor or
Manager.
7.1.2 All initial aircraft checkouts and annual checkouts will be conducted according to Attachment 2.
Instructors will complete all necessary items for and endorse the pilot for a Flight Review according
to 14 CFR 61. Subsequent aircraft make and model checkouts will be conducted according to
Attachment 2; however, the Flight Instructor need not complete the additional items necessary for
the Flight Review unless the client is transitioning to or from a TAA aircraft.

01 OCT 2021 13
7.1.3 Instrument Checkouts. All initial instrument checkouts will be performed according to Attachment 2
and 14 CFR 61.57, and instructors will complete an endorsement for an Instrument Proficiency
Check. Subsequent make and model checkouts for pilots with instrument ratings need not include
an Instrument Proficiency Check unless the client is transitioning to or from a TAA aircraft. In all
cases the instructor must ensure the client has demonstrated the ability to use all installed
equipment under IFR conditions.
7.1.4 Instructors will ensure checkouts are conducted according to this manual and pilots are able to
complete the maneuvers to the standards established in the appropriate FAA Practical Test
Standards for a Private Pilot / Instrument Rating. The intent of the checkout is to ensure the pilot is
capable of meeting the standards; it is not designed as a flight test. In-flight instruction can be given
as necessary; however, the flight instructor must be confident the pilot is capable of performing each
maneuver without intervention or instruction. If a pilot cannot perform a maneuver to the required
standard, instructors will discuss with the Chief/Assistant Chief Instructor to develop an appropriate
course of training. Be sure to emphasize to the client that this retraining is for their safety and that
all pilots need periodic refresher training to maintain their skills.
7.1.5 Night Checkout. No renter shall make a night flight unless he or she has been previously checked out
and approved for night flying by a WINGS flight instructor. It is the renter's responsibility to maintain
night currency according to the current FARs. If a renter’s FAR night currency for carrying passengers
has expired, regardless of day currency that renter must get a night recheck by a WINGS instructor to
operate a WINGS aircraft at night with or without passengers unless this requirement is waived by
the Chief Instructor.

Maintenance Procedures
8.1 Grounding
8.1.1 Any pilot shall ground an aircraft, if in the pilot's opinion, the aircraft is not airworthy. Pilots shall
document grounding in/on Flight Circle ( aircraft discrepancy log (squawk sheet)), and the aircraft
shall not be operated until released by authorized company personnel or a licensed A & P/ IA
mechanic.

8.2 Deferred Maintenance

8.2.1 The Manager or Chief will be the final authority for approving those discrepancies the Maintenance
Director or Mechanic has determined may safely be deferred until the next scheduled inspection.
Discrepancies the Maintenance Director does not think can be deferred shall be considered
grounding items. In no case shall an item be deferred if it is a required item.

Medical Certification
9.1 I certify that I have no medical conditions that would adversely affect my piloting an aircraft.
Those medical conditions include, but are not limited to: frequent or severe headaches,
dizziness or fainting spells, unconsciousness, eye or vision except glasses, hay fever or
allergy, asthma or lung disease, heart or vascular trouble, high or low blood pressure,
stomach disorders, liver disorders, intestinal problems, diabetes, neurological disorders,
substance dependence, suicide attempts, or motion sickness requiring medication.

01 OCT 2021 15
I understand that if I have any of the above conditions, or any other medical conditions that would
adversely affect my piloting and aircraft I must provide WINGS Flight School with a statement from
my health care provider certifying my fitness to fly.

Covenant Not to Sue / Release of Liability

10.1 I, hereby affirm that I am aware that flying and activities associated with flying have inherent and
unforeseeable risks which may result in serious injury or death. I understand and agree that neither
my instructors nor WINGS Flight School, nor any of their respective employees, officers, agents,
contractors, or assigns, (hereafter referred to as “Released Parties”) may be held liable or responsible
in any way for any injury, death, or other damages to me, my family, estate, heirs or assigns that may

responsible for events resulting from my physical condition, limitations, or incapacitation. I further
state that I am of lawful age and legally competent to sign this liability release or that I have acquired
the written consent of my parent or guardian.
I understand the terms herein are contractual and not merely recital, and that I have signed this
document of my own free act and with the knowledge that I hereby waive my legal rights. I further
agree if any provision of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision may
be severed from this agreement; however, the remainder of this agreement shall then be construed
as though the unenforceable provision had never been contained therein.
BY THIS INSTRUMENT I AGREE TO EXEMPT AND RELEASE MY INSTRUCTORS, WINGS FLIGHT
SCHOOL AND ALL RELATED ENTITIES AS DEFINED ABOVE FROM ALL LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY
WHATSOEVER FOR PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE OR WRONGFUL DEATH HOWEVER
CAUSED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE RELEASED PARTIES,

I HAVE FULLY INFORMED MYSELF OF THE CONTENTS OF THIS LIABILITY RELEASE AND ASSUMPTION
OF RISK AGREEMENT BY READING IT BEFORE I SIGNED IT ON BEHALF OF MYSELF AND MY HEIRS.

01 OCT 2021 15
24 Hour Cancellation Policy
11.1 I understand that if I need cancel a flight, I need to do so as soon as possible. Cancellations for any
reason must be received 24 hours in advance to avoid the cancellation fee. Cancellations must be in
a verbal form with a live person. You can call your instructor or the front desk at 707-449-4647. ONLY
the flight instructors can weather-cancel an appointment. Many times, the weather seems bad and
your instructor will determine if it is appropriate for your lesson or if ground instruction may be
needed.
I also understand that if I am confused or can’t remember when I have a scheduled lesson to call the
front desk if I am unable to check my online scheduler (provided on the wingsflightschool.com
website). By signing below, I understand that it is my responsibility to know my schedule and if I
short notice cancel or no call, no show I may be subjected to cancellation fees.
