IDAG selected
ELITE PI-42 Flight Simulator, which is based on the Diamond DA-42 aircraft, as a new synthetic device for its flight school US Aviation Training Solutions (USATS) in Titusville, Florida. IDAG is working closely with ELITE to
bring the first PI-42 sim into the US market. The PI-42 is high fidelity simulator with capabilities exceeding common AATD standards. Since USATS operates a twin-engine DA-42 in its flight school, it was a logical step to select a simulator matching capability of existing fleet to provide ideal training experience.
IDAG has been working with ELITE to get this simulator approved by FAA, and it is anticipated that the approval will be granted in the next few months. Upon certification, the PI-42 simulator will meet FAA AATD
1) level.
USATS will immediately integrate the simulator into our current fixed-wing pilot programs—both single engine and multi-engine trainings. An AATD level simulator at USATS will enhance our training facility and allow trainees to practice normal, emergency and Instrument procedures. In addition to safety advantages, pilots will appreciate the considerably lower price.
The simulator will be available not only for trainees from our training programs such as PPL, IR rating, CPL or FI, but for all pilots interested. Contact us for more info or book your slot at
