Summary:
|
The Crowley Academy of Aviation, Transportation and Logistics is seeking Board approval for the purchase of an enclosed flight simulator, MCX/SD dual control, manufactured by Redbird. Our new P-TECH program, Aviation Flight, would utilize this simulator in order to allow students working toward a career as a pilot to engage in activities that will closely simulate real flight experiences. The MCX is a dual control system meaning that the student AND the certified flight instructor can both be seated in the cockpit area for instruction the same as if they were in the cockpit of an actual aircraft.

Budgetary Impact:

$80,390 to be funded by FAA Grant
