On Top PCATD

On Top PCATD

ASA's On Top PCATD combines the power and flexibility of the On Top software with aviation's most realistic flight controls, a complete instructional guide and an integrated ground and flight training syllabus, to make a loggable package for Part 61 and Part 141 instrument students.

PC-based IFR simulation is becoming the accepted method of initial instrument training and procedures practice for students and pilots. Up to 10 hours can be logged towards the instrument rating with the On Top PCATD, plus an unlimited amount of ground training hours. Complex procedures such as NDB intercepts, intersection holds with gusting winds, and in-flight, realistic instrument or systems failures can be performed, analyzed and replayed. By mastering these skills on the ground, students can cut significantly into the time and cost of traditional flight training.

Get a brief history, and learn of some practical applications of PCATDs on our PCATD History & Practical Applications Page.
