This online class studies aviation fundamentals including principles of flight, aircraft and engine operations, weather, navigation and radio communications as required by the Federal Aviation Administration regulations. Topics include general service, maintenance and safety practices.
Instrument Ground School (AV 210): Have you ever wondered how a pilot can find an airport runway in bad weather? Learn how pilots fly through inclement weather. If you want to become an instrument pilot, you will be able to legally fly in the clouds, rain and fog, which broadens your abilities and keeps you in the air instead of on the ground during inclement weather. Pilots who want to fly in the clouds need to get an instrument rating added on to their private or commercial pilot certificate. And most professional aviation businesses require pilots to be instrument-rated, so its a necessary step for those who might want to become an airline or corporate pilot. The ability to fly solely by reference to instruments in the aircraft means that a pilot isnt limited to good weather operations only. It is also one of the most rewarding opportunities as an instrument pilot. You will also receive college elective credit for the BAS, AGS and AAS degree.
