Redbird Newsroom
All flight simulators, including those from other companies, can be traded in for credit toward the purchase of a new Redbird.
Redbird Flight Simulations today announced its new Trade In, Trade Up program to give owners of outdated flight simulators an upgrade path to a state-of-the-art Redbird aviation training device. Simulation has become an important part of modern flight training, but thousands of simulators are relegated to limited use due to a reliance on 30-year-old technologies and outdated design. This new program from Redbird allows operators of these devices to get value from their initial investment, while upgrading the training experience they can offer to their customers.
All students in grades 5-12 are welcome to attend classes and fly the simulators
Austin, TX (June 6, 2018) – Another installment of the Redbird STEM Lab will take place June 15-16 during the AOPA Fly-In in Missoula, Montana. Open to all students in grades 5-12, the STEM lab will utilize Jay Velocity flight simulators to integrate science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) into aviation-themed classes. Redbird again has teamed up with Greg Roark, CEO of Aspen Aerospace Alliance, to instruct the classes.
The academy’s second Redbird device to kick-start rotor-wing training program in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Las Vegas, NV (February 27, 2018) – At HAI HELI-EXPO 2018, Redbird Flight Simulations has announced the first international sale of its VTO helicopter training device. Genesa Flight Academy, one of Indonesia’s leading training providers, will take delivery of the device in June 2018.
The VTO is the second Redbird device to be integrated into Genesa’s flight training curriculum. For fixed-wing proficiency training, the academy acquired a Redbird MCX in 2014.
Aviation-themed, youth outreach initiative enhances program with Redbird FMX simulator.
Austin, TX (January 8, 2018) – Supporting the growth of its innovative, aviation-based, youth outreach program, the Bob Hoover Academy (BHA) and Redbird Flight Simulations have partnered to integrate flight simulation into its curriculum.
Based in Salinas, California, which retains one of the state’s highest, youth homicide rates, BHA utilizes flight training to engage local, at-risk teens in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education. Since 2017, and for several years prior under the moniker, Every Kid Can Fly, the academy has executed a full ground training curriculum and flight training program with a single instructor and airplane. With a full-motion, Redbird FMX simulator in its facility, BHA now enables students to hone their skills even when they are apart from their aircraft and instructor.
The simulator-based maneuvers training supplement is designed to help student pilots achieve their goals faster.
Oshkosh, WI (July 24, 2017) - This week at AirVenture, Redbird Flight Simulations is proud to release its much-awaited Guided Independent Flight Training software for Private Pilots, better known as GIFT. GIFT is a simulator-based training supplement that allows a student pilot to learn, practice, and get feedback on every maneuver required for a pilot certificate, at their own pace. This cutting-edge technology is meant to help pilots achieve their goals faster and for less money.
