MILSPEC Jet TRAINING
MILSPEC Jet Training is based on the same procedures, standards, and operational practices used to train US Navy jet pilots. Our mission is to instill this rigorous culture of single pilot safety taught to Naval Aviators within the minds of civilian jet owners and pilots. Combining this methodology with experience in corporate, military, and airline training, we provide advanced single pilot jet instruction and ongoing operational support to owner/operators seeking a higher standard of training.
