The VFR & Core IFR
Procedures program
not only teaches the
basics, it provides
comprehensive
training on almost
all operational
aspects of your GPS,
including IFR
Procedures. It's
also a great
refresher tool for
recurrent training
and helps minimize
the "highly
perishable skills
syndrome" that
occurs from
infrequent use of
your Garmin
navigator. It is the
safe way to discover
and understand your
GNS 530 & 430,
compared to heads
down in-cockpit
training.Re-learn what you forgot, or
never really knew you were missing!
Now you'll be
cleared for the
CheckFlite™, a
challenging virtual
flight. Testing your
GNS 530/430
operational
knowledge
thoroughly, the
CheckFlite begins
with a tricky IFR
clearance and
departure then
continues with
multiple amendments,
re-routes, an
unpublished hold and
finally concludes
with modified
approach & missed
procedures.
While you're dealing
with weather and ATC
imposed issues, the
CheckFlite will also
assess your
procedural logic,
offering
multiple-choice
decisions for you to
make. Successful
completion of the
CheckFlite will not
only give you strong
confidence in your
abilities but will
generate a
certificate of
completion, for FAA
Wings credit and
more.
The Advanced IFR
Procedures training
for the 530/430
includes our Quick
Tips and Common
Mistakes sections,
which explain
timesaving
techniques and
instructional
content that reviews
common pilot
operational errors
with the GNS 530 &
430.
