We can see senior instructor Barry Twomey putting Air Astana cadet Sergey Dolgopolov through his paces in the Piper Seneca PA34.
One of the many advantages of completing your flight training in Ireland is the wide variety of weather conditions one can meet on any given training detail.
Here we can see that Sergey was flying in actual instrument conditions for most of the flight, which is invaluable experience for any pilot moving onto commercial aviation.
