This program is for models of Beech Bonanzas and Debonairs that are not yet covered in a Beechcraft^® Essential Systems and Techniques (BEST) course. Training focuses on the unique information you need to safely and efficiently fly these aircraft. 12 individual modules address:

Take the BEST modules on your schedule, at your own pace. The Learning Management System tracks your progress. If you need to leave in the middle of a module you’ll be taken back to where you left off next time you log in. After completing the roughly 5.5 hours of training you can print a course completion certificate for your insurance company or to show an ABS Recognized Flight Instructor you’re ready for flight instruction. Find CFIs with Bonanza and Debonair experience using the FIND AN INSTRUCTOR function on the TRAINING menu at www.bonanza.org. Come back to review individual modules periodically as a refresher and to prepare for future Flight Reviews. The BEST course is recognized by ABS AVIATOR and satisfies the ground instruction requirements for the Basic level of FAA WINGS for those who participate.

By completing the BEST course you’ll have ATP-level knowledge of the systems, procedures and techniques for maximum performance and safety in your Beechcraft^®. The Legacy course is also a great resource for flight instructors who want to be safer and more effective when teaching in these models.
