Course Descriptions
The manual describes two main types of training: Initial and Recurrent. Initial training consists of 20 hours of ground school and 10 hours of simulator training, focusing on aircraft systems, performance, and procedures. Recurrent training is shorter, with 12 hours of ground school and 6 hours of simulator training, allowing pilots to practice normal and emergency procedures.
Ground School Topics
Ground school covers General Operational Subjects (GOS) such as Weight and Balance, Planning and Performance, and Adverse Weather. It also includes a detailed breakdown of Aircraft Systems, ensuring pilots understand the various systems of the Beechcraft Duke.
Simulator Training
Simulator training includes briefing and debriefing sessions for each module, covering weather briefings, performance calculations, and maneuvers. Training modules focus on Aircraft Orientation, Normal, Abnormal, and Emergency Procedures, helping pilots develop necessary skills for operating the aircraft.
Prerequisites for Training
For initial training, trainees must hold at least a Private Pilot Certificate with Multi-Engine Land and Instrument Rating. Recurrent training requires completion of a formal initial course or 100 hours logged in the Beechcraft Duke series. A 2-day recurrent course requires prior completion of a Duke recurrent course with SIMCOM.
