Using Bonanza/Baron Home Simulators for Currency and Proficiency

Webinar date: July 14, 2020
Time: 1900 Central Time/0000Z 15 July

About this Presentation
Guest speaker Gary Schank presents a fun and informative look at the benefits of home-based simulators for the Beech pilot. Topics include:

• Exploring home simulators and programs for any budget
• How to remain current using home simulators
• Simulator scenarios to practice procedures for your Beechcraft model
• Use of simulators to learn and prepare for new certificates and ratings, IPCs and Flight Reviews, and to streamline checkouts in new airplanes
• What the FAA considers acceptable simulator time for currency purposes

Viewers will be able to type in their questions to be answered during the event. We’ll explain how to do so at the beginning of the webinar.

Although this American Bonanza Society program is oriented toward pilots of Beech Bonanzas, Debonairs, Barons and Travel Airs, the discussion, techniques and procedures described are valuable to the pilot of any airplane.
