THE ADVENTURE
Mission Accomplished
The Adventure begins with your private pilot training in a Cirrus SR20 G7. Our clients tend to immerse themselves immediately, flying as much as possible. We spend part or the entire day together learning how to be a safe pilot, operate at all types of airports and to be confident flying in the NY Class B airspace. ⁃Instrument training is conducted in a Cirrus SR22 G6 or G7, literally flying anywhere, including across the country — to Catalina Island and back. This experience ensures that you become the most well-rounded pilot possible. You’ll see actual instrument conditions, receive countless ATC clearances and instructions, land at some of the busiest airports in the country and generally return to NJ with a very different perspective.
Our Cirrus training includes the Cirrus Approach Learning Portal, offering training videos, flight simulators, and detailed aircraft systems presentations to ensure you become a proficient Cirrus pilot.
Training in a Cirrus aircraft offers superior comfort, safety, and technology compared to traditional training aircraft. From advanced avionics to the CAPS system, our aircraft provide an ideal learning platform for new and experienced pilots.
All of our Cirrus SR20 and SR22 aircraft are equipped with the Garmin Perspective+ (G6) or Perspective Touch+ (G7) avionics system, including advanced autopilot features, XM satellite weather, and the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS), providing an unparalleled level of safety.
LEARNING TO FLY IN THE Northeast
There’s learning to fly and then there’s learning to fly in the Northeast US. Located in the heart of the busiest airspace in the world, flying at P6 means that you will become an extremely capable pilot. You’ll experience rapid interactions with the New York ARTCC, flight in all types of challenging weather and you’ll do it all under the guidance of pilots with a vast amount of experience. As the saying goes, if you can make it here, you can make it anywhere.
For pilots looking to transition to a Cirrus aircraft, we offer comprehensive Cirrus Transition Training, ensuring you are well-versed in the aircraft's systems, flight characteristics, and avionics before you take command.
