General Information

Overview

In Aviation Practice, you will learn how to use checklists for single-pilot operation flying, which will support your development towards multiple crew operations. In the flight simulation labs, you will learn the proper use and effect of primary and ancillary controls on the ground and in the air. You will fly simulated air exercises including: straight and level, climbing, descending, turning, and stalling. You will demonstrate flying the circuit pattern with air traffic control procedures and phraseology as part of your final assessment. The simulation will utilise the Lockheed Martin Prepared 3D software.
