Rotax class

I have gotten help several times from Roger in text and over the phone. He has always been open to assist. I wish I could attend but I also encourage anyone operating a Rotax to get this training. I went to Dean with Lockwood a few years ago. Dean did a great job too, but any class would be helpful.
 
Is this the course you need to take to qualify for the light-sport repairman certificate with inspection rating, or is this something different?
 
An electic

This is not required for the light sport repairman certificate, but recommend for owners/operators of Rotax power plants.
 
Roger is excellent. He has spent alot of time on the phone with us on Rotax systems. Would be money well spent.

Tucson, AZ Rotax Service Class Details
Feb. 4 & 5, 2017

Here are the details and information regarding the upcoming Rotax Service class. This is a hands on 2 day class targeted at performing an annual / 100 hour inspection. There is some Power Point presentation in the mornings, but the difference in this class versus others is all the hands on time. We will actual work on a real engine for an annual inspection and asking questions on a live Rotax 912ULS engine during our work. A 912iS engine will be there for discussion. This is a Rotax authorized class and you will get certification for it.

The class is Feb. 4th & 5th, Saturday & Sunday. The class will start promptly at 0800 each day. There will be class in a conference room each day in the morning and work in the hangar each day after the class presentation. There will be a lunch break each day at approximately 1130 hours.
Please bring a laptop or tablet device in case you need to find Rotax information or manuals on line. There is Wi-Fi in the classroom.
The class is being held at Ryan Airfield (KRYN) in Tucson, AZ. (9698 W Ajo Hwy). This is west of Tucson proper and city limits and approximately 15 minute drive from the Tucson Airport (TIA). If you fly in your own aircraft parking is right up at the back door of the conference room. Rental cars are available at Tucson Airport and Enterprise usually will pick you up at Ryan if you need a car from there.

Make your hotel room reservations and any car rental reservations now because there is a large Gem & Mineral show in town.

Directions to Ryan Airfield are as follows and can be reached by either Ajo Hwy or Valencia Rd. They both run right in front of Ryan Airport. The conference room is up front at the airport on Ajo Hwy. It is the only building out on Ajo Hwy and the only parking out on Ajo Hwy.

If you are staying in Tucson central or out by Interstate 10 then take I-10 to I-19 south. Immediately exit west onto Ajo Hwy. Follow this road 12 miles out to Ryan Airfield.

An alternative area to find a hotel is in Green Valley, Az just 15-20 minutes south of Ryan. It?s an easy drive.

If you are staying in a hotel out by Tucson Airport off Valencia Rd. Just head west on Valencia until it dead ends right at Ryan Airfield on Ajo Hwy.

The restaurant at Ryan field just closed and they hope to have it open by class time, but that may not happen so we may have to drive a few miles for lunch. We can share cars.


Prepare to learn and have fun doing it!
