    This course provides a comprehensive overview of knowledge required and thorough preparation for the FAA Private Pilot Practical Examination. It is designed for student pilots who are enrolled in a 14 CFR Part 141 flight school and are training for the private pilot certificate. This course will also prove beneficial to students training under 14 CFR Part 61 and private pilots who wish to refresh their knowledge or who are preparing for a flight review. The course is organized to address the seven areas of knowledge required for the practical test, including: certificates and documents; weather; determining performance and limitations; airplane systems; cross-country flight planning; night operations; and aeromedical factors. Prerequisite(s): AV/ 110 Private Pilot Theory; AV/ 112 Private Pilot Lab I; AV/ 113 Private Pilot Lab II Co-requisite(s): May be taken as a co-requisite with AV/ 113 Private Pilot Lab II 1 credit (1 lecture; 0 lab) Prerequisite:    AVI110 AND AVI112

    This course will introduce the concepts of aircraft control by scan and interpretation of flight instruments. The student will learn to recognize unusual attitude indications and recover from such situations. Human Factors, CRM, and flight physiology will be emphasized. There will be an in-depth study of pitot-static and gyroscopic instrument systems and recognition of anomalies in these systems. The theory of operation, interpretation, and use of VOR, ADF, DME, GPS, RNAV, RMI, HSI and autopilot systems will be examined. A detailed study of IFR regulations, procedures, and publications for IFR operating rules in the U.S. Airspace System will be included. Aviation meteorology will be studied in more detail as well as recognition of potentially hazardous flight conditions. Successful completion of this course will provide an endorsement to take the FAA Instrument Rating written exam. Prerequisite(s): AVI 110 Private Pilot Theory or credit for previous ground training. 3 credits Prerequisite:    AVI110

    'This course is designed for the Private Pilot to gain the skills necessary to precisely control the plane using basic attitude instrument flying and the airplane''s navigation systems. It is intended to be taken in conjunction with AVI 120 -Instrument Pilot Theory. The following components of instrument flight training will be mastered in this course: VOR and GPS holding; Localizer, DME and intersection holds; VOR and GPS approaches; Localizer and ILS approaches; cross-country procedures; federal aviation regulations; departure, enroute and arrival procedures; loss of communications and emergency procedures. Each new skill presented will be taught on the basis of previously mastered knowledge and skills; therefore, it is important that the student allow for sufficient flight time. Prerequisite(s): Private Pilot Certification; AV/ 110 Private Pilot Theory; AV/ 112 Private Pilot lab I; AV/ 113 Private Pilot lab II; or credit given for ground and flight training. Co-requisite(s): AV/ 120-Instrument Pilot Theory 2 credits (O lecture; 2 lab) ' Prerequisite:    AVI110 AND AVI112 AND AVI113 Corequisite:    AVI120
  • 4.00 Credits

    This course will take the concepts studied in Private Pilot Theory and Instrument Pilot Theory to a more advanced level to prepare the student for a professional career in the field. Subject matter will include Federal Aviation Regulations that pertain to Commercial Pilot privileges, limitations, and flight operations, NTSB accident case studies and accident/incident reporting, Aerodynamics, Meteorology to include recognition of critical weather situations and use of reports and forecasts, effects of exceeding aircraft performance limitations, function of complex aircraft systems and high performance aircraft operations, aviation safety to include aeronautical decision making and judgment, aviation physiology to include night and high altitude operations, review of the National Airspace System, and Human Factors in aviation. Successful completion of this course will provide an endorsement to take the FAA Commercial Pilot written exam. Prerequisite(s): AVI 110 Private Pilot Theory, AVI 111 Private Pilot Flight, AVI 120 Theory of Instrument Flight, and AVI 121 Instrument Pilot Flight or credit for previous ground and flight training. 4 credits Prerequisite:    AVI110 AND AVI111 AND AVI120 AND AVI121 Corequisite:    AVI211
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course will provide the student with part of the flight training required of the Commercial Pilot FAA practical test standards. This is the first half of two phases of flight training. MTT Aviation Services at the Johnstown Cambria County Airport will provide the flight training. The student will receive pre/post briefings on the commercial maneuvers and complex aircraft systems within the FAA practical test standards before and after flight training. The instruction will include dual flight time and solo flight time for experience requirements. Prerequisite(s): FAA Third class medical certificate, Proof of U.S. Citizenship or Transportation Security Administration Check, AVI 110 Private Pilot Theory, and Private Pilot License or credit for previous flight/ground training. Co requisite(s): AVI 210 Commercial Pilot Theory 3 credits Corequisite:    AVI210
