- "WE LOOK FOR THE BEST EQUIPMENT MONEY CAN BUY, WHETHER WE'RE FLYING OR TRAINING." R ICHARDSON AVIATION'S CHARLES BOND LEARNED to appreciate training in the Air Force. "Even back in the '60s when the simulators called for lots of imagination, training was important," says Charles. "It's all the more effective today; flying a simulator is so close to the real thing." At Richardson Aviation, the "real things" include three Falcon 900s, two Falcon 20s, a Citation XL, a West- wind II, two King Air 350s, three Bell helicopters, and three small aircraft. The 20 pilots and IO technicians who fly and maintain this diverse fleet train regularly at FlightSafety, the only single company that can serve such varied training needs. FOR MORE INFORMATION, CONTACT ANY FLIGHTSAFETY LEARNING CENTER, OR CALL JIM WAUGH AT (800) 877-5343 (EXT 126). FAX (718) 565-4134. OR WRITE TO OUR HEADQUARTERS AT THE MARINE AIR TERMINAL, LAGUARDIA AIRPORT, NEW YORK 11371. CHARLES BOND DIRECTOR OF AVIATION RICHARDSON AVIATION, FORT WORTH, TEXAS After joining the ROTC program as a student at the University of Kentucky, Charles spent 20 years as an Air Force pilot of large, four-engine aircraft, a career that included 11 years in the prestigious 89th Airlift Wing responsible for VIP transport. He has been part of Richardson Aviation since 1985. "Everybody gets something out of training," Charles says, "whether from time in the simulator or from class room discussion with other operators." They also take advantage of offerings on such topics as CRM, TCAS, International Procedures, and RSVM. "We always feel better after training, because we are better."
