Recent studies have shown that positive transfer of learning occurs when a PCATD is used as part of an overall training program. A University of Illinois study found that subjects who trained solely in PCATD's, completed instrument training 4 hours sooner than those who trained solely in airplanes. The FAA approved FlitePro excels at teaching instrument scanning procedures, situational awareness, and how to think ahead of the aircraft.

The system has been designed from day one to completely integrate the software and hardware resulting in a seamless, turnkey solution. Because of this design, this system runs better and eliminates the need for the user to put the system together from components obtained from multiple manufactures. Skill Enhancement Modules - these modules are ATC software packs that enhance the realism of each simulator session and further increase the training value.

Yes, you can select from a variety of panel options that are often associated with the Beechcraft Bonanza and Cessna 172. Some of these options include an HSI, directional gyro, radio magnetic indicator, and slaved or fixed ADF.

Currently, under provisions detailed in Advisory Circular 61-126, you can log 10 hours of flight time towards the existing requirements for the Instrument Rating. In addition, it can be used towards meeting the requirements for private pilot and/or instrument ground school training.

The FAA approved FlitePro can be used anywhere. However, the requirements of AC 61-126 stipulate that to log time, the instruction must be conducted by a CFII and a maximum of 10 hours may be applied towards an Instrument Rating.

this point in time, the FAA has only made provisions for utilizing PCATD's toward a rating but has not established guidelines for using a PCATD for instrument currency requirements.

The FAA approved FlitePro currently offers a Beechcraft Bonanza and a Cessna 172. Future upgrades will be available and will include other common training aircraft.

The FAA approved FlitePro includes a database that has all of the IFR airports and navaids available for the entire world allowing you to practice flying instrument approaches into unfamiliar fields BEFORE you actually have to fly them in the airplane. Database updates are available individually, or by subscription and are update four times per year.

Possibly. AC 61-126 stipulates very precisely what kinds of flight controls may be used with an approved PCATD. You may be able to use your own yoke or rudder pedals, provided they meet the requirements of AC 61-126. Call your Jeppesen Sales Representative for more details.

No. To our knowledge, neither the FAA nor IATA reviews or evaluates online training courses (and neither does the US DOT). In fact, the FAA will not evaluate any training courses of any kind from any provider (this includes online, classroom, computer-based, etc). IATA does, however, offer a designation called the IATA Endorsed Training School, and these endorsed training schools often advertise their courses as "IATA Approved". We are not an IATA Endorsed Training School.

Yes. AVBLEND is FAA approved for aircraft piston engines; it is the only product of its kind to receive FAA approval.

No. Kit aircraft are registered as "experimental" aircraft, and as such are not FAA 'approved' or certified. The ZODIAC kit meets the requirements for amateur-built (experimental) categories in the United States and Canada, as well as in most countries around the world. In the United States, the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) has inspected and determined that the ZODIAC kits meet FAR section 21.191(g) known as the '51% rule,' making it eligible for amateur-built registration.

No, as this list is constantly updated (it would be impossible for them to produce and maintain). However, there is a good information on medications that are allowed and disapproved on the web site of the ALPA aeromedical physicians, click here. Or ask your AME or Regional Flight Surgeon's office.

The system is intended for pathology residents; however, people of any level, from medical students to general pathologists may also benefit from using the system.

FAA is the acronym of the U. S. Federal Aviation Administration, the organization responsible for controlling air traffic safety in the United States.

this time, the FAA has approved only the AmSafe Aviation CARES, which is appropriate for children weighing between 22 and 44 pounds. The AmSafe Aviation CARES must have a label indicating "FAA Approved in Accordance with 14CFR 21.305(d), Approved for Aircraft Use Only." No. Allegiant Air does not maintain a peanut-free zone on any aircraft. Allegiant Air serves products that may have been manufactured in facilities that process peanuts or peanut-based products.

When American Aeronautics went into business in 1981, the FAA in Washington at the Office of Flight Standards was approached for approval of our system. After a little discussion it was determined that our vector template (nomograph) system fell into the same category as electronic computers, hand held calculators, E-6B flight computers, and Jeppesen navigation plotters. They are simply calculators, and have never been issued an STC or needed to be "approved by the FAA".

Using your own keys provides identity verification. When a contact receives your public key, he or she knows it is you; an imposter wouldn't be able to use your public key because they don't have your private key. Your contacts do not have to be Plus users to be able to save, view and verify your keys, nor do they have to be Plus users in order to enjoy the higher encryption when speaking with you.

Since I-125 and Pd-103 seeds emit a very weak gamma ray, it is possible to strategically place them in and around the prostate in a manner that minimizes the radiation dose to normal tissues and organs such as the urinary bladder, urethra, nerves and blood vessels that allow for erectile function, and rectum while optimizing the dose to the prostate cancer. As a result, the side effects of the treatment are minimized while the cure rate of the cancer maximized.
