Thank you for visiting my web site. My name is Charath Ranganathan and I am a CFII based in Southern California. I teach at the Aero Association of California Institute of Technology (AACIT), often known as the “Caltech/JPL Flying Club.”

As a lifelong aviation enthusiast, avid flight simmer, and AvGeek, I am happiest when I’m in the air. I consider it a privilege to guide you in your aviation journey.

My goal is to make this site one of the most sought-after resources for those embarking on their aviation journey. The site and its contents will always be free.
