Senator Johnson and 17-year-old Central Catholic student Jaylen Palmer get ready for Jaylen to fly a group to Klamath Falls so he could get his instrument rating.
An instrument rating will allow you to legally fly without the visual reference of the ground or a horizon. In other words, you’ll be able to fly from Point A to Point B without ever looking out your window (except for your take-off and touch-down). You will learn to stay ahead of the aircraft while managing tasks like changing radio frequencies, programming navigation equipment, and briefing and flying approaches, all while continually scanning your instrument panel.
