C177 checkout Austin area

[Kddouglas]

Looking for a CFI in the AUS area that can do a checkout in a C177. Insurance requires the CFI to have five hours in make/model.

I'm up in Dallas, but have four figures of Cardinal time - we fly them for work. Did you just buy one?

I’m in the middle of the purchase. The last insurance quote was a bit more lenient with the CFI requirements. I’m a CFI with Cardinal time, but I’m currently a CA with American and haven’t flown anything with a prop in probably 25 years. With that being said, I need a checkout for my own peace of mind since I’m not proficient.

Nice plane! There are a few owners at my home drone CFD. If you don’t find anyone in AUS area, let me know so I can try to contact them for leads.

Are you on Facebook? If so, ask on the Austin Pilots page. You'll find one very quickly. If not, I can ask for you!
