The club is pleased to offer a new course for pilots who would like to fly with the Garmin G1000. This is a practical course consisting of a classroom session in the morning, followed by flying in the afternoon. You will be paired with another student. This means reduced costs, but it also gives you the opportunity to learn in the front seat and consolidate from the back seat.
The classroom session will take approximately 2.5 hours. We will then break for lunch and fly in the afternoon. Each student will do 2 flights: (1) start-up procedure, instrumentation, radios and engine management, and (2) flight plan entry and auto-pilot operation. The intermediate landings will be away from Jandakot in order to reduce landing fees. Each student will fly approximately 1.6 hours in a modern G1000 equipped S model C172.
The course is offered on a Saturday. The ground school portion is $156.50 per student. Students can decide on a number of routes for the flying training, which will be charged at the prevailing rate. The course is subject to aircraft and instructor availability. To make a booking please contact the club on 94170000 or info@royalaeroclubwa.com.au.
