Key Takeaways:

  • Redbird Pro, an app for pilots, has introduced three new challenging flight simulator scenarios: asymmetrical flaps, loss of elevator control, and box canyon turns.
  • These scenarios allow pilots to practice and improve their proficiency in potentially emergent situations within a safe, controlled environment, guided by an experienced CFI.
  • Each scenario includes a preflight briefing, flight execution, score review, and debriefing, designed to build procedural skills.
  • The app supports Redbird simulators and also features a "Chair Flight" option for pilots without direct simulator access, making the training widely available.

If you had to, could you fly an aircraft with asymmetrical flaps, a loss of elevator cable or make a box canyon turn in tight quarters? It’s much better to find out the answer to these questions in a controlled environment, such as a Redbird Flight simulator, than out in the real-world at crunch time. That’s why Redbird has added these three scenarios to Redbird Pro, an app designed to help pilots build good procedural skills and proficiency in challenging situations.

Each scenario takes pilots through challenging, potentially emergent situations with an experienced CFI as their host.
