The Collings Foundation announces that, for the first time ever, flight training programs are now available to members of the public in a Douglas TA-4J Skyhawk. This once in a lifetime opportunity allows pilots to experience one of the most important jet fighters of the Vietnam/Cold War era from the best possible perspective, the cockpit of this legendary aircraft!
The TA-4J SKYHAWK TRAINING PROGRAM takes place over a two-day period, at the Collings Foundation’s Houston, Texas campus. Each participant will take part in academic sessions on the aircraft, which will include presentation safety procedures, ejection seat training and cockpit orientation, before donning a Nomex flight-suit and strapping into one of the most powerful civilian operated fighters in the world. Flights will be personally tailored to each student’s interests and capabilities.
Package pricing is available for advanced flying. A private pilots license IS NOT REQUIRED, third class medical are required. Call (978) 562-9182 for more information.
