Transition Training FAQs

The BonusJet is in the Experimental-Exhibition & Racing category. We received a Letter of Deviation Authority (LODA) per 91.319(h) to allow transition training to currently licensed pilots with a glider rating. As of this time, we have finished the training program and have received final FAA checkout. Contact us to get on our jet transition schedule today!

We allow qualified pilots to solo the BonusJet.

We offer the full training at Moriarty, NM (30 miles east of Albuquerque). Contact us for more information.

We offer a complete transition course, consisting of approximately 8 hours of ground traing and 8 hours of flight training over three or four days. Visit Jet Sailplane Training for a sample of the curriculum.

Yes. Our training can be tailored to serve as "comparable aircraft training" for other jet aircraft such as the SubSonex MicroJet airplane.
