Harold Rutila

I am a highly experienced flight and ground instructor (ATP; CFI-A; CFI-IA) serving the Metro Detroit area. I specialize in working with aircraft owners; partners; and flying clubs who require timeliness; a customized approach; and a high degree of attention to detail that most others simply cannot offer. I have worked in many types of training environments; most recently as a full-time independent CFI in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area from 2016 to 2018. Since then; I have been working as a first officer for a large regional airline at Detroit Metro Airport (DTW); while offering independent instruction during Michigan's warm season. I am a proponent of scenario-based training and use of flight simulators to develop and refine your abilities.
