Pipistrel Alpha Trainer Training Built Around Your Goals
Whether you're transitioning into the ALPHA Trainer for the first time, looking to improve proficiency, preparing to rent the aircraft independently, or want to make your flight time more purposeful, training can be structured around your experience and objectives.
ALPHA Trainer Familiarization & Transition
Learn the aircraft's systems, handling characteristics, normal procedures, sight picture, and operating considerations.
Aircraft Checkout Preparation
Structured instruction for pilots working toward the proficiency required to operate the aircraft through Reach For Skies, subject to the operator's final approval and requirements.
Proficiency & Scenario-Based Training
Use the aircraft to sharpen stick-and-rudder skills, energy management, cross-country decision-making, and real-world proficiency.
Purposeful Time Building With Instruction
For pilots who need flight time but also want to use those hours to develop skills rather than simply watch the Hobbs meter turn.

If you're looking for Alpha Trainer instruction, familiarization, owner/operator support, or help bringing an aircraft into service, tell me a little about what you're trying to accomplish.
ABOUT ANDY
Rooted in Aviation.
Driven by Curiosity.
I’m Andy Garcia Jr., a Houston-based pilot, flight instructor, entrepreneur, and multidisciplinary professional. Aviation is at the center of my professional life, but my interests also extend into finance, economics, business development, art, and creative problem-solving.I don’t see these as unrelated pursuits. Each reflects the same desire to understand how things work, recognize opportunities, develop useful ideas, and build something of lasting value.
Whether I’m helping another pilot develop, evaluating a business opportunity, creating a new project, or expanding my professional network, I approach the work with curiosity, practical thinking, and a commitment to continuous improvement. This website serves as my professional home base—a place to share what I’ve accomplished, document what I’m building, and connect with people who may become colleagues, collaborators, clients, or friends.
