I am looking for a one day type class much like the one that ALL ATPS offers for EFIS & FMS orientation... I am not a fan of ALL ATPS and am wondering if there is another company out there that offers the same product??
One, a flight sim like microsoft might be the way to go. I am not sure if there is a FMS on this game or any other game like it. But I think this might be a good start.
Second why would you spend your dollar on this type of training. If your trying to prep for an airline I strongly suggest that you don't. All airlines have there own way of training. Let them do teach it too you at there own expense. But if your just board and are looking for a hobby, this one sounds better than some of my own.
When I was going through the ground school, the company had some kind of PC based FMS and EFIS program, I am sure you get get that CD some where. Don't wast your money on that, your company will teach you the basics, you will learn the rest during IOE in a heart beat. By the way, I think that PC program coast over $200.
There are some great addons to Microsoft Flight Simulator such as the CRJ and ERJ that can teach you a lot about the systems and FMS. I have met some regional pilots that have used these addons and continue to do so on a regular basis. Yeah, its just a computer game, but you can learn a lot from it.
