No Longer will your skills in conventional instrumentation prepare you for a advanced avionics systems you will likely encounter during your transition to commercial airline flying.

In today's airline hiring environment, advanced skills will give you a definite advantage over your competition and give you a head start in your airline training.

Phoenix East Aviation's Glass Cockpit Training Course has been designed in order to provide pilots with the skills required in today's airline environment.

Additionally, due to the demanding environment or today's high tech cockpits, there is a greater emphasis on multi-engine crew coordination between the Captain and First Officer. The FAA now mandates that all aircrew receive training in CRM (Crew Resource Management). CRM training has been proven to be successful in preventing accidents caused by human error and has resulted in an overall improvement in aviation safety. The Crew Resource Management, CRM/Human Factors course will train the pilot to become familiar of what will be expected of him or her in a two pilot airline or corporate environment.

“Phoenix East made dreams come true. As a former flight student and flight instructor at Phoenix East Aviation, I have to give PEA all the credit for making my dreams come true. Phoenix East provided me with very professional and timely flight training. Included in my course was the B-727 airline training program that prepared me for the big jets and an airline job. The fact that I was given the opportunity to work as an instructor after graduation made me obtain the necessary experience and flight hours to become eligible for an airline job. In my Scandinavian Airlines interview, the Captain made a great point of me being a graduate of Phoenix East Aviation. He said that he had seen a lot of highly qualified applicants come from Phoenix East. Well, I got the job.
Today I’m a First Officer on an MD-88 for Scandinavian Airlines and I love it.”
