IMAGE AIR's Malibu, Mirage, and Meridian Training Program

This simulator is a closed cockpit of an ACTUAL Piper Malibu Mirage which includes the King KFC-150 Flight Director with KAS 297C Altitude Pre-Select, in addition, the simulator uses a Garmin 530 GPS!

The Scenario Based flight/sim sessions consist of basic airwork with special attention to stalls, normal procedures, emergency procedures, normal and maximum performance takeoffs and landings, and all the instrument enroute and approach procedures with emphasis on the proper use of the autopilot system and flying a technically advanced aircraft.

We are capable of flying any altitude, attitude, maneuvers (including inverted), and any approaches from the Jeppessen database (over 12,000 airports) including STARS, SIDS, GPS, LOC/ILS, BC, VOR, and ADF.

We can simulate many more emergencies than can be done in an airplane. Electrical systems, loss of alternators, loss of vacuum pumps, hydraulic landing gear failures, flap failures, electric pitch trim runaway, pressurization, GPS failures (either satellite or RAIM errors), and icing conditions just to name a few.

The Frasca TruVision visual offers 170 degrees of visual on an eight foot projection platform. We can change weather from scattered, broken, overcast, or layers plus different visibilities for approaches, including haze, ground fog, rain, mist, snow, daylight, dusk, dawn, or night...plus any runway lighting features for runways.

The training program from Image Air consists of an extensive ground school with an integrated flight training curriculum, and the new simulator curriculum. Lesson plans have been developed to minimize time, and maximize learning and retention.

The extensive ground school goes in depth on aircraft systems, supplemental systems, normal procedures, emergency procedures, performance and NTSB reports. The course uses the airplane Flight Manual, the Malibu Training materials and extensive "hands on" experience of our instructors to provide a complete practical knowledge of the demanding Piper Malibu and Mirage.

The flight training curriculum integrates the knowledge from the ground course as it pertains directly to in-flight and simulator session operations and can be tailored, where applicable, to the clients specific needs.

Initial Ground Training	$1000.00/$500 each additional pilot
Refresher Ground Training	$650.00/$325 each additional pilot
Flight Training	$100.00 per hour in your airplane
Frasca 142 Simulator TruVision PA-46 Instruction in Simulators	$70.00 per hour $135 per hour $100 per hour

The school is scheduled, as much as possible, at the clients convenience. The entire course can be completed in two days provided there are no lengthy insurance flight time requirements. For more information or scheduling call us at (309)663-2303.
