Pilots N Paws® is an online meeting place for pilots and other volunteers
who help to transport rescue animals by air. The mission of the site is to provide a user- friendly communication venue between those that rescue, shelter, and foster animals; and pilots and plane owners willing to assist with the transportation of these animals.
Joining is easy and takes just a minute of your time.

to your instructors and examiners. Remember, most training centers for recurrent training want you to suc- ceed. They aim for satisfied, repeat customers and are there to assist you in demonstrating your proficiency.
Arrive early, establish rapport with fellow participants, share insights, and stay organized. Prioritize some exer- cise at the hotel, ensure you get qual- ity rest, and nourish your body with nutritious food, rather than relying on the donuts and processed snacks often provided by the training center.
Treat this experience with the same level of focus and attention as you would in the flight deck. Minimize dis- tractions and prioritize your training. While life may present unexpected challenges, it’s important to avoid mul- titasking with work-related matters or handling personal situations during class instruction. Such behavior not only distracts the instructor and your classmates but also disrespects the in- vestment you’ve made in the training
and the time and effort invested by others. If necessary, address personal matters outside of the training envi- ronment and block out your training days to ensure you can fully immerse yourself in the learning experience.
And once you walk out of the simu- lator for the last time, complete your debriefing, and receive your stamp of approval for another year... it’s time to celebrate! You’ve earned it through your hard work and dedication.
