Software helps pilots transitioning from conventional “round dials” to the Technically Advanced Aircraft (TAA) glass cockpit environment.

The Complete Avidyne Course is a 4-hour, narrated, computer-based tutorial providing an orientation to the TAA glass cockpit environment and specifically the Avidyne-Entegra PFD, MFD, audio panel, GNS430 GPS, autopilot, and transponder. In contrast to the actual aircraftcockpit which can sometimes be a poor classroom, pilots will enjoy the safety and convenience of using this course from the privacy of a home or office computer.

Written by Mike Gaffney, Factory-Authorized Flight Instructor (Cessna, Diamond, Cirrus and Quest Kodiak), Avidyne Flight Test Pilot, and FAA 2007 National Flight Instructor of the Year, this program provides an orientation to the screens, knobs, and buttons to help pilots understand how to properly operate the system, interpret malfunctions, and achieve an effective scan.

Applicable to both VFR and IFR operations, and all aircraft installations of the Avidyne Entegra, the course uses scenario based training throughout and each lesson concludes with a summary and quiz to ensure a thorough understanding of the material. PC and Mac compatible, search function and glossary included. Graduation Certificate provided upon completion of the course. The Complete Avidyne Course is simply the safest, most efficient way to help pilots master the glass cockpit from the convenience of the desktop and incorporate these lessons into their everyday flying procedures.

Using scenario-based training throughout, each lesson concludes with a summary and a quiz to ensure you understand the material. A student record tracks your progress and at the completion you will receive a frameable Certificate of Completion as proof of your accomplishment.

Sunday, February 27, 2011 Rather Dissapointing by Fraser McLachlan from England, UK  Pros: Its better than reading the manual Cons: Dull and no interaction which means you don't learn much Review: This was a rather dull tutorial with no real interaction. The voice commentary with drab and the pace very slow with a lot of unnecessary information that seemed to be there just for 'padding' Monday, October 05, 2009 Very well put together by Robert from Bascom OH USA  Pros: Good presentation Cons: Need clearer pictures Review: When you want to go to another program,you have to X out the avidyne course.
