Redbird Flight Simulators

Our new Redbird Flight Simulators provide leading-edge aviation technology. Simulating general aviation aircraft often flown in training, the instructor can prepare the student in various scenarios encountered in the air. The company Redbird Flight Simulations has been providing state-of-the-art simulators for years. They are so advanced, the FAA allows students to legally log time towards their pilot certificates and ratings. This regulation provides flight training at less than half the cost of operating an actual aircraft. While time spent in an actual aircraft is still required, it remains a cost-saving solution.
