Need to know who needs what. Reply back to only avcraftinc(at)gmail.com (avcraftinc(at)gmail.com), not to all please, with the specific training you need, along with your experience. For example: new guy, experienced wing man, or would like to advance to the next level
If you need basic formation safety and ground school, let me know, if so it will start Thursday afternoon. NOTE: You MUST download print then read and study the RPA Formation Manual from the RPA Website (https://flyredstar.starchapter.com/content.php?page=Library) or you may purchase it from the RPA Store. Also, you need to practice as much as possible prior to the clinic. DO NOT come to the clinic with no prior formation training or experience and expect to leave with a wing card. Being a competent and safe formation pilot requires extensive training and practice.
