Thank you for choosing Goldberg Aviation for
Initial and Recurrent Training

Please review the following information carefully to complete your training reservation.

1. Scope

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern all Initial and Recurrent training engagements provided by Goldberg Aviation (“Goldberg Aviation,” “we,” or “us”) to a client (“Client” or “you”), regardless of aircraft type. By scheduling a training engagement with Goldberg Aviation, Client agrees to these Terms.

2. Payment Policy

2.1 Two-Invoice Structure
Training is billed in two stages:

First Invoice

Issued when training is scheduled, to secure Client’s training dates. This invoice covers the standard training package for the applicable program (Initial or Recurrent), as set out in Client’s quote. Payment of the First Invoice is required to confirm the scheduled dates. Dates are not considered confirmed, and no instructor will be dispatched, until payment has been received. A credit card must be provided and kept on file by Goldberg Aviation. Please click here for the link to the Credit Card Authorization Form.

Second Invoice

Issued after training is complete, to account for any additional time or expenses incurred beyond the standard package. This may include additional training days, instructor travel days, weather delays or layovers, extended instructor hours, and instructor expenses (airfare, lodging, ground transportation, meals, and similar costs). Applicable fees for each of these items are set out in Client’s second invoice if applicable.

2.2 Minimum Charge

The rate for each training program reflects a minimum number of training days, as identified in Client’s quote. This is a minimum charge: Goldberg Aviation does not prorate, refund, or otherwise adjust the First Invoice for Clients who complete training in fewer days than the applicable minimum.

2.3 Cancellations

Cancellations made less than 48 hours before the scheduled start of training are subject to a cancellation fee of $1,300.00. Goldberg Aviation commits instructor time — and in many cases travel — based on confirmed dates, so late cancellations result in a fee regardless of the reason for cancellation.

2.4 Payment Terms

All invoices are due upon receipt unless otherwise agreed in writing. Goldberg Aviation reserves the right to postpone or decline to begin training, including ground instruction, until payment of the applicable invoice has been received.

3. Insurance Requirements

3.1 Client Aircraft Insurance

Where training is conducted in an aircraft owned or operated by Client, Client is responsible for maintaining an active aircraft insurance policy covering that aircraft for the full duration of the training engagement.

3.2 Instructor / Client Coverage

Client’s policy, or an endorsement to it, must specifically extend coverage to the Goldberg Aviation instructor while acting as pilot-in-command, co-pilot, or safety pilot during training — however that role is designated under the policy (commonly referred to as open-pilot or non-owner instructor coverage). Additionally, each individual receiving instruction must also be named on the policy.

3.3 Certificate of Insurance

Before any in-aircraft or in-flight instruction begins, Client must furnish Goldberg Aviation with a current Certificate of Insurance (COI) confirming the coverage described in Sections 3.1 and 3.2. Goldberg Aviation will not authorize an instructor to conduct in-cockpit instruction until a valid COI has been received and verified. Additionally, Goldberg Aviation must have a Waiver of Subrogation and be named as follows:

Goldberg Aviation, Inc.
P.O. Box 44
Cody, WY 82414

Insurance Documentation must be sent to:

madison@goldbergaviation.com

Ground instruction may begin once the applicable invoice has been paid, even if the COI has not yet been received. No flight instruction will occur without a verified COI on file, regardless of payment status.

3.4 Ongoing Obligation

Client is responsible for ensuring insurance coverage remains active and sufficient for the entire training engagement. If coverage lapses or is materially changed at any point during training, Client must notify Goldberg Aviation immediately. Goldberg Aviation may suspend instruction until the issue is resolved, and any resulting delay is treated as a scheduling delay under Section 2.1.

3.5 Insurance-Mandated Training

Where Client’s insurance carrier requires specific training as a condition of coverage (for example, type- specific Initial or Recurrent training), Client is responsible for confirming that the training requested aligns with the carrier’s requirements before scheduling. Goldberg Aviation will document completion of the training provided, but does not verify or guarantee that a given course satisfies any particular carrier’s requirements.

4. Privacy Notice – Training Information & Insurance

As part of your training with us, we may collect information about your participation, progress, and completion. In certain cases, we may share relevant training information with insurance providers. This is typically done to confirm training completion, support insurance eligibility, or assist with risk assessment. We only share necessary information and handle your information with care, adhering to applicable privacy standards. We do not share your information for unrelated purposes without your permission, unless required by law. By participating in our training, you agree to this limited use of your information.

5. Acceptance

By confirming a training engagement, Client acknowledges having received and agreed to these Terms of Service.

6. Changes to These Terms

Goldberg Aviation may update these Terms from time to time. The version provided to Client at the time of scheduling governs that training engagement, unless otherwise agreed in writing.

7. Questions

Questions about these Terms should be directed to Goldberg Aviation before confirming training dates.

While the Pre-Instruction Test is only mandatory for initial/transition training, you may find it helpful to review for your recurrent. It allows the aviator to get back into the books and self-review. Please use it as a guide for discussion questions with your instructor.
