Training for Every Pilot
EAA and Redbird have joined forces this year at the Pilot Proficiency Center to provide training options that fit every experience level and schedule. We've built a training catalog that includes:
- Full-day VFR & IFR refreshers for active pilots looking to sharpen their skills.
- Ad-hoc simulator sessions for pilots that want to get a taste of sim training while still getting the full Oshkosh experience*
- A first of it's kind Rusty Pilots + Redbird Sim Course powered by AOPA to help get you back in the cockpit*
- Dedicated sim sessions and presentations to show you how to get into backcountry flying*
- A Right Seat Ready course for spouses that includes hands-on training in the Redbird sims*
*Registration for these training sessions will open in the coming weeks.
