FAA Approved Training Devices (AATD)
JA Flight Simulators
All JA Flight Training simulators are FAA certified as Approved Aircraft Training Devices (AATD's). AATD simulators are built to replicate the look and feel of being in the actual aircraft. Students are allowed to log time towards their ratings which represents a significant savings for students that utilize the full benefit of the simulators. Students can also get an introduction to multi-engine and turbine engine flight by use of the Baron sim and Caravan sim during their commercial training.
