The166th Airlift Wing C-130H2 flight simulator in its dedicated, climate controlled building, Dec. 12, 2019. The sim building also functions as a classroom and has whiteboards, presentation A/V equipment and a conference table for crew training.

Dedicated crew chiefs, U.S. Air Force Tech Sgts Chris Hamilton, Steve Lawrence, and Mark Gede go over engine run procedures in the 166th Airlift Wing flight Simulator, Dec. 12, 2019. Each aircraft has a dedicated crew chief who must be able to start, run and shut down its engines. Maintainers must be able to identify maintenance issues with C-130H2 engines.

My question is..why does the progressive runway flash once and then disappears. In FS4, it always stayed until I closed it. I like to be able to taxi to the proper gate in FSX.And...Why does the Golden Gate Bridge disappear after dark. In the dayti...

Why is it that sometimes when I arrive at an airport I dont get the taxi to the gate option in the ATC menu. It's pretty annoying to fly 4000nm and then find out you can't get to the gate... :fear: I'm assuming it's because there is no gate available,...

I am not really good with maps and directions and stuff and I don't really know where the grand canyon is lol. Anyway can someone please give me the name of the airport closest to where the grand canyon is situated?...

Now that my landing has been sorted, the airport gates still bug me. Everytime I choose a gate in the flight planner, the aircraft is nowhere near the airport when I start before pushback. If I press CTRL+S I see that the airport is miles away. I was flyi...

Our friends at Maday Avionics were kind enough to support our Flight Night program this year with a donation. We thought it fitting to share their announcement and support. Merry Christmas to everyone at MAYDAY!

Todd Chase co host of the Morning Mix show on Fox 17 invited Flight Path to talk about the FLIGHT NIGHT program. CLICK HERE to see the interview. We challenged Todd and co host Michelle Dunaway to come to a FLIGHT NIGHT and try their luck with flying the simulators. Stay tuned!

Local students say they really enjoyed their FLIGHT NIGHT introduction to aviation program. For more information about the FLIGHT NIGHT program and sign-up click here > FLIGHT NIGHT PROGRAM.

Some of the FLIGHT NIGHT participants are very serious about their interest in becoming a pilot. We refer them to another non-profit organization called STEM Flights for a potential next step. STEM Flights connects students to local pilots to plan a flight together where the student does most of the flying. For more information about the STEM Flights program and to apply for a flight go to www.stemflights.org

* What's included: one-hour flight simulator experience* Gold Upgrade* Simulator assessment and training not included* Flying time may be split between participants* Maximum two people allowed in the simulator at one time

The IAANZ Simulator Centre offers you the best seat on our brand new A320 flight simulator. Select your Sky-High Adventure and experience first-hand what it feels like to be at the controls of a 70-ton Jet.

The IAANZ Simulator Centre, with state of the art equipment, offers a range of pilot training courses with a team of highly skilled and qualified flight instructors with decades of experience in the airline industry.

The Multi-Crew Cooperation (MCC) Course at IAANZ has been designed, built and delivered by professional pilots who have many years of operating in a multi-crew environment and who have been check Captains for various International airlines.

Following a contract award from Booz Allen Hamilton, Frasca developed a Desktop Avionics Trainer (DAT) and a mixed-reality Part Task Trainer (PTT) that capitalized on a common software package to provide consistent training for pilots as they progress through the TH-73A pilot curriculum. The combination of fidelity and technology results in a comprehensive training ecosystem that trains and equips student pilots for more advanced training scenarios.

In addition, Frasca developed a first-in-class flight PTT that allows for dual pilot operation and multi-ship training in a compact configuration using mixed-reality technology. The trainer blends actual aircraft control surfaces and hardware with high-fidelity virtual imagery to include emulated night vision goggle (NVG) environment. The advanced technology and efficient footprint of the PTT optimizes available space and maximizes student throughput to better meet the demands of the operational fleet.

Finally, Frasca worked with FSI Defense, a FlightSafety International company, to install eight new Frasca manufactured TH-73A Flight Training Devices (FTDs) and upgrade 10 TH-57B/C model FTDs to complete the next generation training ecosystem. The high-fidelity simulators replicate the motion and vibrations that students will experience in actual flight, enabling them to practice basic flight maneuvers, instrument and NVG training, formation flying, emergency procedures, and other scenario-based training prior to going to the aircraft.

The combination of DAT, PTT, and high-fidelity flight training devices enable students to reach higher levels of proficiency in fewer actual flight hours, accelerating training while maintaining the high standards of Naval flight training.

Maj. Bryce Turner, 416th Flight Test Squadron, became the first Air Force pilot to fly the T-7A Red Hawk, following a test flight at the Boeing aircraft delivery center in St. Louis, Missouri, June 28. Turner holds up a patch that once belonged to John L. Hamilton of the 99th Fighter Squadron, the Tuskegee Airmen. Hamilton was the first pilot in his squadron to receive the Purple Heart.

Maj. Bryce Turner, a test pilot from the 416th Flight Test Squadron at Edwards AFB, California, has achieved a historic feat by becoming the first Air Force pilot to fly the T-7A Red Hawk. On June 28, the aircraft lifted off at 11:51 a.m. Central Standard Time during a test flight at the Boeing aircraft delivery center in St. Louis, Missouri.

Turner's journey is a testament to his exceptional aptitude for aviation and unwavering determination. From an early age, his passion for flying was ignited as he watched his father perform with the Viper Demo Team at Misawa Air Base, Japan. With a strong affinity for problem-solving and mathematics, Turner pursued engineering studies at the University of Virginia, ultimately earning a degree in Aerospace Engineering while participating in the Reserve Officer Training Corps.

His aviation career took off when he was selected for Air Force pilot training, progressing through various programs that included flying the T-6, T-38 and F-16. Turner's journey took a poignant turn when he had the opportunity to fly the same T-38 tail number his father had flown decades earlier.

After serving in operational assignments as an F-16 fighter pilot at Kunsan Air Base, Korea, and Aviano Air Base, Italy, Turner set his sights on attending the prestigious United States Air Force Test Pilot School to pursue his dream of testing cutting-edge technology. With the counsel of a close friend from the University of Virginia ROTC, who had previously attended TPS, Turner successfully navigated the application process and earned admission.

Joining class 20A at TPS in January 2020, Turner excelled in all aspects of the program, developing a particular passion for flight sciences. The Qualitative Evaluation program, a highlight of the curriculum, exposed him to a wide range of aircraft, including the T-33, the same jet his grandfather had learned to fly in 1958.
