Program Based On Existing Curricula, Updated For TAA
Mooney International has renewed the Mooney Transition Training program to provide in-depth training for new aircraft owners with various experience levels that purchase new 2015 M20 series models, which includes the Acclaim Type S and Ovation 3. Mooney developed the program from existing transitional curricula, then formatted it to improve pilot transitioning in the new Technically Advanced Aircraft (TAA).
“Mooney International is excited to have our Transition Training Program renewed to again offer our new aircraft buyers training with purchase of their new aircraft,” said Mooney CEO Jerry Chen.
The Mooney Transition Training was developed using the FAA Industry Training Standards (FITS), which focuses on the redesign of General Aviation Training and whose main purpose is training customers in a scenario-based environment. The FITS program improves the Mooney pilots’ aeronautical decision-making, risk management, and single pilot resource management skills without compromising basic stick and rudder skills.
New owners will move through a four-phase 5-day program designed to ensure pilots are trained to enjoy their aircraft. The first two phases of the Mooney Transition Training program include academic review of the Mooney aircraft and Garmin G1000 Avionics Suite, which includes one-on-one training in the Redbird FMX full-motion simulator. The final two phases include Flight Training in the new owners’ own aircraft and finally course completion.
The Mooney Transition Training program is currently only available to pilots that purchase a new Mooney aircraft, however, Mooney International is working to expand the program in the near future to provide training to all interested Mooney pilots.
