Epic Flight Academy has trained thousands of pilots who have gone on to careers at more than 300 airlines worldwide, according to the company. And they pride themselves on being able to move students from around the world through a training course in the most efficient way. So it makes sense that Epic would look for ways to further increase efficiency while retaining a solid training experience for new professional pilot candidates.
Epic Flight Academy Adds Frasca Motion Sim, Reduces Training Time
Key Takeaways:
- Epic Flight Academy has partnered with Frasca International to implement a new, highly advanced full-motion Cessna 172 flight training device.
- This FTD is the first globally to incorporate such a high-level motion system, allowing students to practice complex maneuvers like stalls and steep turns in a highly realistic environment.
- The device significantly enhances training efficiency by providing more training hours at a third of the cost, better preparing students for actual flight before entering an aircraft.
- Epic integrates 30-40 hours of simulator time into its private pilot course, and both companies are seeking recognition for this training time towards commercial pilot certification requirements.
