Key Takeaways:

  • Flight training companies, including FlightSafety International and Legacy Flight Training, are transitioning their ground school courses to online platforms due to declining in-person attendance.
  • FlightSafety International now offers instructor-led LiveLearning for over 20 helicopter and fixed-wing models, while Legacy Flight Training provides online ground school for Piper's M600, M500, and Meridian aircraft.
  • These online programs feature live instructor interaction, annotation tools, video, and web-chat, with the in-person simulator portion of recurrent training still required within 90 days of completing ground school.

As in-person attendance numbers for recurrent training decline because of the COVID-19 virus, companies such as FlightSafety International and Legacy Flight Training have transferred one of the most people-intensive portion of their courses—groundschool—to the internet. Legacy Flight Training is the exclusive authorized Piper training provider for the M600.
