Frasca Reconfigurable Training Device (RTD) OAS utilizes the Frasca RTD, an FAA-approved Advanced Aviation Training Device (AATD), for its Garmin avionics training programs. This versatile simulator can be configured to replicate both G1000 equipped and traditional six-pack, CE172S cockpits. It’s especially beneficial for learning the NXi version, which includes RNAV approaches to LPV minimums and VNAV en-route, along with the GFC700 with a flight director. The RTD’s use of real Garmin G1000 NXi software ensures that pilots learn accurate procedures and develop the right habits, mirroring real-life aircraft operations.
G1000 Legacy & NXi Systems Trainer The G1000 Legacy & NXi Systems Trainer is designed to introduce pilots to the world of modern Electronic Flight Instrument Systems (EFIS). This training focuses on building foundational knowledge of the G1000 and NXi systems. Pilots train using actual Garmin factory software, which allows them to focus exclusively on mastering the methodology and workflow of these advanced avionics suites. The training is conducted in a simulated flight environment, from takeoff to touchdown, enabling pilots to learn in a cost-effective, efficient, and risk-free setting.
Garmin Cross-Training Simulator OAS’s unique Garmin Cross-Training Simulator, based on the proven Gleim Virtual Cockpit, is expanded to include Garmin’s 400, 500, 600, and 700 series product lines. This simulator is tailored for pilots transitioning from older Garmin models to newer ones. It offers a rare opportunity to experience and train on a flight deck that combines multiple generations of Garmin products. This cross-training approach is ideal for pilots upgrading their aircraft’s avionics or transitioning to aircraft equipped with the latest Garmin technology.
These comprehensive training tools at OAS provide pilots with immersive, practical experiences. They are instrumental in helping pilots transition to advanced Garmin avionics interfaces, enhancing their skills in a controlled, cost-effective, and risk-free training environment.
