Each pilot is provided a personal copy of the GNS
430 flight simulator on CDROM and training guide.
A two-hour Ground School is available at $30 which
helps you understand why and how the G1000 does what
it does. An additional 1-hour in-aircraft training
session is designed to give you hands-on experience
at hardware operation. Flight session(s) from 2 to
5 hours complete the transition training so you can
build the confidence and in-the-air experience to
enjoy and safely fly with the new avionics package
soon to be common place.
Note that we can incorporate in the session the meeting
of requirements for an Instrument Proficiency Check,
Flight Review, and Renter Check-out, thus making the
Glass Panel Transition Program more useful, if you
have the need and so desire.
Flight Session Agenda for the Cessna 182
- First, get familiar with the performance and control
of the aircraft (Slow flight, stalls, take-offs
and landings).
- Next, practice navigation and build proficiency
for Direct-To, Tuning Nav/Com’s, Transponder
Operations, Basic Multi-Function Display and Engine
Monitoring, Failure Modes, and autopilot functions.
- Then, really develop operating skills intercepting
and tracking navigation systems and unusual attitude
recovery.
- If you are Instrument Rated, now you can build
on these basics by learning and practicing 2 non-precision
approaches, 1 precision approach, and holding procedures
- Finalize your transition training with post-flight
procedures (checking instruments and equipment)
and improving your Aeronautical Decision Making
and Risk Management skills.
Anticipate $30 for the 2-hour ground school, $36
for the in-aircraft ground training, plus $350 to
$875 for dual in the C-182, or $250 to $625 in the
Diamond DA-40 for the in-flight training.
