JET AIRCRAFT PERFORMANCE AND AERODYNAMICS

Course Information

This program is designed for pilots transitioning out of propeller-driven aircraft, specifically single-pilot operation, into a Multi-crew Concept (MCC) turbine/turbine prop aircraft. Due to the increased speeds and altitudes of jet aircraft operations, it is important that you review these significant differences.
