Pilot Proficiency, a new pilot training business, has taken delivery of a Frasca RTD (reconfigurable training device) simulator and is open for business at its first pilot recurrency training center located in Lisle, Illinois.
The company offers FAA-approved Frasca AATDs (advancedaviation training devices) in locations convenient to pilots and available24/7. Pilots can book simulator time by the hour or make a commitment toproficiency with monthly subscription plans for affordable recurrency training.
Pilot Proficiency operates a Frasca RTD – an AATD featuringreal Garmin G1000 Nxi software for a realistic cockpit experience. The RTD canbe configured to fly like the Cessna 172 as well as Cessna and Piper Seminolemulti-engine aircraft utilizing conversion kits. The Frasca RTD also features athree-channel visual system and enclosure.
Using the RTD, pilots can self-log their simulatorexperience without an instructor or safety pilot present. The company's goal isto make it easy for pilots to maintain their currency by offering simulators inlocations where pilots live and work. Recent changes to FAR 61.57(c) allowinstrument-rated private pilots to log their required approaches, holdingprocedures and intercepting and tracking courses in FAA-approved simulators tostay current.
