1. The BJS flight simulator is time and cost efficient --- studies show a ratio of 3:1 for equivalency of training time, simulator vs aircraft.

2. Single or multi-engine, fixed or retractable gear, fixed pitch or constant speed prop --- we can duplicate the plane you regularly fly.

3. The simulator can be "frozen" at any time to discuss progress and analyze problems.

4. Fly the approach in real world conditions --- wind, turbulence, ATC clearances and instrument malfunctions.

5. Use current enroute and approach charts for the approach of your choice.

6. Get a color-visual depiction of the terrain and runway as you break out of the clouds, representing conditions you'll see in actual IFR operations.

7. Approaches are plotted for post-flight analysis of your performance.

8. Practice engine failures and other emergencies without abusing your airplane. No more setting "zero thrust" to simulate an engine out.

9. Distraction-free. Your entire effort can be devoted to the learning process.

10. Your flight is completely independent of outside weather conditions. In fact, we create the desired weather, wind and turbulence. You won't get hot, wet, cold or dirty!

FAA regulations require that recent instrument experience includes holding procedures, intercepting and tracking courses through the use of navigation systems and at least six instrument approaches.

The BJS simulator is the most time and cost-efficient way of meeting these regulations.
