In-person Rusty Pilots Seminars Canceled

As we continue to monitor the spread of COVID-19, our biggest concern is the health and safety of our attendees, hosts, and presenters. In an effort to follow the guidelines set forth by the Centers for Disease Control, we feel it is in the best interest of everyone concerned to cancel all in-person Rusty Pilots seminars through June 30.

We will work with the hosts to reschedule Rusty Pilots seminars later in the year. If you are a non-member and paid to attend the seminar, please call our Membership Services team at 800-872-2672, 8:30 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. (EDT), M-F, for a full refund. In the meantime, check the Rusty Pilots online calendar in the coming months for new seminar dates and locations.

We regret the inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience and understanding during this time of uncertainty. We will resume a full schedule of in-person seminars as soon as it is prudent to do so, and we look forward to seeing you at a Rusty Pilots seminar soon. Until then, take our Rusty Pilots online course, free for AOPA members. Not an AOPA member? Learn more here.

For those who can’t make it to one of our in-person seminars, we’ve developed an engaging online course that gives you all the information you need to get current again. Follow a cross country flight scenario where you'll review all of the major areas of a flight review, plus get the chance to test your knowledge. When you’re finished, we’ll even help you find a flight school near you where you can complete your flight review and get back in the air.

Sporty's Pilot Shop

AOPA has enjoyed a partnership with Sporty’s that began long before the company became a Supporting Sponsor in 2012. AOPA pilots have relied on Sporty’s products since the company was launched in the early 1960s, when founder chairman, Hal Shevers, started selling supplies to his flight students. But the relationship between Sporty’s and AOPA goes beyond pilot supplies. An AOPA member for more than 50 years, Hal pioneered the three-day ground school when he taught for the AOPA Air Safety Foundation in 1963. In the 50 plus years since, Sporty’s and AOPA have continued to partner on items critical to safety, fun and freedom to fly. Today, the dedication of Sporty’s master instructors, product specialists, and exemplary customer service representatives positions Sporty’s as the world premier pilot shop, producing an extensive line of aviation training materials, and operating its own flight school.
