Instrument Rating
Course
About the Course
Elite Flight Academy utilizes an FAA-approved Redbird LD Flight Simulator as part of the Instrument Rating course. By training with the simulator, students can learn the instrument procedures and practice instrument approaches repetitively to increase their proficiency before flying in the aircraft. In different flight scenarios or even emergency situations, the simulator can train students to be well prepared to handle those incidents. The simulator training also provides the student with a much more cost-effective way to obtain Instrument Rating.
Make every mission possible even on cloudy days when you earn an Instrument Rating with Elite Flight Academy. Let us help you reach your destination and become a better pilot.
