The G1000 is the most advanced flight deck ever offered in a general aviation airplane. With better than jet technology, you would never suspect something so useful could be such an easy transition. With full color and easy to read screens, the G1000 helps improve situational awareness.
Many airlines and companies require glass cockpit experience. If becoming a commercial pilot is not your goal, experiencing the G1000 is well worth it. And the G1000 is the ultimate platform for instrument flying.

The Redbird MCX is an ideal training platform providing enhanced training from student pilot to professional crew. It comes equipped with an innovative 3-axis electric motion platform. This one-of-a-kind system provides effective motion feedback for yaw, pitch, and roll.
The dual controls of the MCX allow an instructor, instructor-in-training, or co-pilot to perform maneuvers from the right seat. During initial pilot training, an instructor can demonstrate maneuvers from the right seat before the student tries their hand, just like a pilot would do in the real airplane. Its full dual control system allows you to simulate real-world Crew Resource Management (CRM) situations.
McAir Aviation’s Frasca TruFlite Simulator and sub-systems are designed to provide realism by combining experience with developing technology.

The Cessna 172 Skyhawk and Piper Seminole are both represented in McAir’s custom built simulator. Perfect for all students in nearly every stage of training, the TruFlite makes a lasting contribution.
