Welcome to BruceAir, LLC

You’ve landed at BruceAir.com, home to a (mostly) aviation-oriented Web site operated by Bruce Williams, a flight instructor, writer, and aviation consultant.

If you have a copy of Microsoft Flight Simulator as a Training Aid, you can now earn WINGS credit from the FAA by completing a short quiz. You can register for the free online course (really just the quiz) at FAASafety.gov. To learn more about the WINGS program, visit the same site.

The Extra 300L has returned to its winter home at Boulder City, NV (KBVU). It will be back at Boeing Field in May 2010. If you're interested in an aerobatic ride or stall/spin/upset training next year, contact me via email.

Please note that aerobatic rides and training are not available at Boulder City, NV (KBVU). Although I visit Las Vegas often during the winter, my schedule varies, and I am not currently able to conduct commercial operations there.

• To learn about flight training, aerobatic rides, multimedia presentations, and other services provided by BruceAir, visit the Services page. If your want general information about learning to fly and flight schools, visit Let's Go Flying!
• You can find more information about Bruce’s latest book, Microsoft Flight Simulator as a Training Aid: A Guide for Pilots, Instructors, and Virtual Aviators, on the book’s home page here at BruceAir.
• My speaking schedule is on the Calendar page.
• I’ve also collected handy flying and learning aids on my Goodies for Pilots page. Among other things, you’ll find a PowerPoint show about holding patterns, a kneeboard template, and a a PowerPoint guide to Flight Simulator.
• And you’ll find an annotated guide and links to (mostly) free aviation related resources on the Aviation Resources page. If it’s been a while since you exercised your pilot certificate, visit Get Back Into Flying in the Learn to Fly section at AOPA
• My blog is on my Windows Live Space, where you can find videos, pictures, and GPS tracks (.kmz files for viewing in Google Earth) of some of my cross-country flights.
• You can find pictures and videos of the Extra 300L, aerobatics, formation flying, and related subjects in my public SkyDrive folders.

Remember, Every seat’s a window seat on BruceAir.

BruceAir’s Blog

Someday I’ll figure out how to integrate the RSS feed from my blog into these Web pages. (I’ve already read and experimented with the instructions posted on several Expression Web forums and blogs, to no avail. Why adding an RSS feed isn’t a core feature, I don’t understand.)

In the meantime, you can follow this link to my Windows Live Spaces blog.
