Two-Month Outlook

My apologies everyone... I had to cancel too many 24 hour bookings in April due to my airline duties, so I've slid those people into slots past the 15-Day Booking Policy window for May. I also locked people in who have been trying for over a month to book with me. Thank you for understanding!

Beginning may 1st, 24-Hour Notice Bookings will only be used for continuances and retests.

These calendars are not interactive, but do look nicer on a tablet or computer.

Robin Leabman started flying at the age of 14 back in 1990, and acquired his Private Pilot and Instrument Rating in high school. Robin instructed all ratings, including Glider, Tailwheel, and Towplane while in college. Throughout his aviation career, Robin has flown freight, air ambulance, global ferrying, charter, corporate, and the airlines. He holds type ratings for LR-JET, GLF4, GLF5, G280, B757, B767, and the L-39 Albatross.

Robin holds all Airplane, Helicopter, and Glider instructor ratings. He holds ATP in ASEL, AMEL, and Helicopter. He also holds ASES and AMES at the Commercial level, though he plans to "Level Up" both of those to ATP within the next year.

Robin is proud to be a volunteer pilot for The Pink Jet.
