Sunrise has recently upgraded our facility to bring modern flight simulation to our training programs. We feature an Advanced Aircraft Training Device (AATD & BATD).

AATD: Our Redbird FMX features remarkably accurate panels, flight controls, and flight modeling for seven different aircraft models: two Cessna 172 models, a Diamond DA 40, a Diamond DA 42 (multi-engine), two Cirrus models, and a Piper Seminole (multi-engine). The 210° video display and 3 axis motion platform provide an unparalled training experience for IFR students, multi-engine students.  refresher training, and those seeking to maintain/advance their skills and understanding.
Thanks to recent changes to FAR 61.57 (c), and (d), the Redbird can now be used to satisfy recent IFR experience requirements and most of an Instrument Proficiency Check.

Although the Redbird is primarily used for instrument and multi-engine instruction, thanks to its remarkable video effects it can also serve as an effective introduction to flight training for those interested in learning to fly. Use the form below to inquire about setting up an introductory lesson.
