These trainers allow the student to get the "feel" of flying before entering the simulator. Students are also tested on their knowledge of control stick and rudder positions as well as the aircraft instrument panel. After passing the test the students earns a simulator "Pilot's License". The better prepared the students are before their visit, the more successful they will be at the Flight Center.
