In memory of a beloved friend, he died doing what he loved to do, May 30, 2005.

Interested in flight training or looking for a charter pilot?

SAS turns to Bob Simpson (ATP, CFI, CFII) when we need a professional pilot. Bob helps us check out experimental aircraft on their first flights, check restored aircraft, provides aircraft check rides for prospective buyers, checks out pilots for their new planes, and provides ferry services.

Bob is an avid flyer and has earned a number of pilot & instructor certificates.

For flight instruction, biennial flight reviews (BFR), tailwheel training (taildragger), tailwheel endorsements, instrument proficiency checks, or check outs in your own aircraft or an aircraft that you provide, contact Bob directly at (407) 884-5893 or on his mobile phone (407) 466-4391. Bob works out of all of the local airports in the greater Orlando area so you do not have to fly out of Bob White. If you wish to rent an aircraft for your instruction, Bob works with Sunair Aviation at the nearby Leesburg (LEE) airport. Sunair has a number of Cessna & Piper single engine trainers and a Beech Duchess twin available for rental and instruction. Bob has is own 7GCAA for tailwheel instruction. For a fun and rewarding BFR try out the Citabria!

Sunair is located at the center of the Leesburg Airport (Lake County) and their phone number is (352) 787-2211.
