  • Technically Advanced Aircraft Transition Training
    Page 1 of 5 © 2011 High Performance Aviation, LLC Technically Advanced Aircraft Transition Training By Brandon J. Ray, CFI, CFII, MEI, Master Flight Instructor In recent years, general aviation has benefited from many innovations and technological advancements. We have seen glass cockpits become standard equipment on new aircraft. Satellite datalink weather now helps guide our inflight decision-making and diversion planning. Digital autopilots on Skyhawks now rival those found on the commercial airlines. NDBs and VORs have faded out of the spotlight as GPS and WAAS technology take over as the navigation source of choice. Moving maps and iPads have replaced the traditional paper charts, plotters and E6Bs. To some pilots, "partial panel" means they lost their XM radio and have to revert to their backup iPod. (Tough flight, huh?) HIGH PERFORMANCE AVIATION, LLC Customized Flight Training for Aircraft Owners www.FlyHPA.com (866) 227-8149 Page 2 of 5 TAA Transition Training © 2011 High Performance Aviation, LLC Lots of change... Good or bad? With all the new technology available in the cockpit, we have the opportunity to improve safety and increase our flying capabilities. Unfortunately, the technology can also create distractions and cause pilots to fumble around with knobs wondering, "How do I do that again?" Sure, you can read the manuals and try to figure it out as you go. You'll quickly find that the manuals were mostly written by tech writers (with the valuable input of the lawyers, of course) and aren't always the most efficient way to learn a new system. After trying to learn the avionics and advanced systems while flying, you start to realize that perhaps spending $100-$200 per hour on Avgas while fumbling with knobs probably isn't the most effective use of your time or money..

Nor is every type of aircraft listed, helicopters and mid-size to large-cabin jets are not included since they are not our expertise.
