Other Cirrus Courses for Advanced Pilots at AVPDK

Some pilots may come to Air Ventures PDK with previous Cirrus experience. In order to rent the SR20, all pilots must have completed a Cirrus transition course at our flight school or have the course certificate as proof of that training.

Some pilots may have received this training in earlier, less-sophisticated versions of the Cirrus product line. For those pilots, Air Ventures PDK offers additional special courses, identical to the ones taught at the Cirrus factory.

These include:

> Advanced Transition: Similar to the basic course but includes extra time for accomplishing an Instrument Proficiency Check (IPC).

> Avionics Differences: This course concentrates on learning how to manage the Garmin Perspective systems in both VFR and IFR flying.

> Airframe/Powerplant Differences: This course is designed for proficient Cirrus Perspective pilots who want to transition from the SR22 or SR22T to the SR20. It is typically a 1-day course.

> Recurrent Training: Every Cirrus pilot is expected to stay sharp and proficient. After all, the best safety feature in any aircraft is a well-trained pilot! Air Ventures PDK and our insurance carrier require Recurrent Training every 12 months in order to rent the SR20 airplane.
