EFT :: Professional Piper Cheyenne Flight Training

Piper Cheyenne Recurrent Training
1 Day

Most insurance companies require recurrent training for the operators of the Piper Cheyenne aircraft. Unfortunately, many PAY training programs make you choose either training in your airplane or training in a simulator. I offer an insurance company approved program that combines both training in a generic cabin class simulator and in your airplane.

GROUND SCHOOL

Often overlooked, this is an important element of your recurrent experience. I use a six hour PowerPoint and lecture presentation to review the following Piper Cheyenne systems:

Aircraft Fuel System
Engines/Propellers
Cheyenne System pre-flight Checks and Test
Cheyenne Flight Profiles & Power settings
Cheyenne Emergency Procedures Checklist
Flight Controls/Wing Flaps
Electrical Systems
Landing Gear
System Check and Tests
Emergency Procedures Checklist
Flight Profiles
Environmental Systems
Anti-ice/Deice
Performance
System Failure Analysis
Avionics & Autopilot

As an A&P mechanic, I can explain the airplane's systems in more detail than other instructors.

TRAIN IN YOUR PIPER CHEYENNE

Although the simulator is a great tool, it does not replicate the actual avionics in your airplane nor does it fly like your airplane. In order to complete your training, we will fly in your Cheyenne and review and discuss the following items:

Engine failure on takeoff/climb/enroute
Visual approach with one engine inoperative
Emergency descent
ILS with one engine inoperative
Non precision approach with one engine inoperative
No flap approach and landing
Missed approach with one engine inoperative
Engine fire
Severe ice accumulation

Of course, non emergency system failures are also reviewed:

Electrical failures
Gear failure
Autopilot failure
Smoke control

The normal procedures that will be covered include:

Holding
ILS/VOR/LOC/GPS approaches (Garmin 430)
Stalls
Steep Turns
Rejected landings/Go-arounds
Flight Director/Autopilot usage
Nexrad (if equipped)
Radar (if equipped)
Navigation/Avionics systems
Normal instrument approaches including circle to land
Unusual attitudes
Take-offs and landings
Single pilot resource management

COMPLETION OF THE PROGRAM

I use the flight portion of the training to evaluate your aircraft handling and decision making skills.

Once you complete my program, you have earned a flight review and instrument competency sign off as well as a certificate of recurrent training for your insurance company.

FEE: $1995.00

Call (843) 521-9412 to schedule your training. A $500 non-refundable deposit is required for simulator training and a $1000 non-refundable deposit is required if I travel to your location. The deposit can be applied to any program if you have to cancel but reschedule within 30 days.
