MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR
John Peltier
I have a unique background in education that started in the U.S. Air Force, where I flew F-15Es for nearly ten years. I've logged 114 Close Air Support combat missions over Afghanistan and was an instructor in a training squadron during my final assignment, eventually overseeing academic material for all F-15E training squadrons throughout the USAF. After entering civilian life, I continued as a flight instructor, this time in helicopters.
Throughout all of this time I saw the struggles that people had learning various aspects of flight training, like the complexities of airspace and weather. After hundreds of in-person students, I've been able to refine a system that works so that everyone can understand it, and have brought that to these online courses.
I currently use unmanned aircraft in a variety of applications, including documentary photography, search and rescue, and inspections, and still fly airplanes recreationally (once it's in your blood...).
