IFR6 acquired a Redbird FMX and two Redbird SD training devices to provide effective flight instruction. For instrument instruction, in particular, IFR6 has found that repetitive practice is critical to efficient learning, and the Redbird devices are the best tools to facilitate this type of training.
With the Redbird devices in its fleet, most basic instruction at IFR6 occurs in the simulated world instead of an airplane. Each student has a CFII and flight simulator dedicated specifically to their training. Students work with instructors every morning in the Redbird devices, concentrating on a few specific tasks until they can do them without thinking. Only then do they get in the airplane to complete a long cross-country trip in the afternoon.
The Redbird FMX and SD are certified as Advanced Aviation Training Devices (AATDs), which means that students can use them to log 20 hours toward their instrument rating and experience high-fidelity simulation no matter the objective of a flight.
