I am in the process of joining a local squadron as a senoir member. I have a commercial rating but have not flown in close to 15 years. I figure it will take me 3+ hours of dual to get current again and then on to instruction for the form 5. My question is, can this instruction take place to get me current in a CAP aircraft with a CAP CFI. I understand that initial flight training can't be done for senoirs but can getting current take place in CAP aircraft?

As long as your a member in good standing, have a CAP ID Card, uniform and meet any local or wing requirements you can use a CAP Aircraft to get current. We have many pilots come to CAP who need to get some flight time in before they take the CAPF 5 Check Ride. Get together with your Local CAP Instructor Pilot and have fun!
