  • CFI renewal, SOE removal, limitation removal, SIC Type Rating, ground instructor certificate

About my schedule:

I only show a rolling 30 days of availability at a time. This ensures that I can complete any tests and allow for weather delays without having to blow up all the appointments. In addition, I do not do continuances from other DPEs unless prior arrangements are made. If you book one, it will be cancelled. Know that until you get an email from me, you are not confirmed. Make sure you check my CFO availability as certain days I can only do checks there. Anyone can book at CFO.

I am again running a waitlist for anyone who is SIGNED OFF and ready for a check ride. Again, don’t put your name on the waitlist unless you are ready to go.

  • See the Fee schedule for check ride costs. I accept Zelle, however cash is preferred. Cash payments receive $100 off. Score 100% on your written, get $50 dollars off. Compete a phase of the FAA’s WINGS program, get $50 dollars off. That comes out to $200 dollars savings. (AirWolf LLC reserves the right to change pricing as needed)

  • I conduct exams primarily out of KCFO and KBJC. Check rides out of KAPA have a $100 surcharge. I will also do checks out of other front range airports with prior coordination. I will travel but due to increased costs, there may be a surcharge added to the check ride. If you are requesting a ride out of the area we can work out the details.

  • A $200 dollar fee will be collected in the event of any of the following:

    -The airman’s logbook entries do not demonstrate that he/she has met the aeronautical experience requirements for the desired certificate or rating

    -Applicant arrives without required documents including the aircraft maintenance records, proper endorsements, or identification

    -Applicant presents unairworthy aircraft (issue detected prior to start of practical test – i.e. aircraft out of annual or 100 hour inspection or other “easily avoidable” airworthiness issue).

  • Retests completed within 60 days will be charged 50% of the exam fee (unless otherwise agreed upon). Retests outside of 60 days are considered new exams and will be charged a full fee.

  • I have found many discontinuance are avoidable. In the case of an unavoidable test continuance that is finished within 60 days I do not charge a fee. For avoidable discontinuance a 50% exam fee is charged.

    Examples of Valid Reasons
