Cessna Pilot Centers Companion App, a free download from the Apple App store, now lets pilots download lessons from their courses to their iPad.
The next time the pilot is online, their course progress is automatically synchronized, allowing them to move seamlessly between their iPad and computer. Then when they resume their course, either offline or online, all the progress they made offline will be displayed on their menu.
“The great thing about our iPad Companion app is that customers are not locked into choosing between using their iPad or a computer,” said Cessna Pilot Center Business Leader Christopher Crow. “The ability to work offline on an iPad and then sync their progress with the servers gives learning pilots the option to continue their course from anywhere, connected or not.”
Pilots learning at Cessna Pilot Centers also have lifetime free upgrades to their courses.
“Every time a pilot connects with the servers, their course is automatically updated,” said Crow. “The courses have already been upgraded to reflect the new Airman Certification Standards (ACS). Plus we’ve expanded the digital library. There are now more than 100 reference manuals, Cessna aircraft PIMs, and books.”
Additionally, the Cessna Pilot Center Sport/Private Pilot training kits now come in a custom-made flight bag from MyGoFlight.
“The new pilot bag looks great, and has room for an iPad, headset, flashlight, and other materials,” he said. “In each Sport/Private Pilot and Instrument Rating kit there is also a free one-year subscription for Garmin Pilot VFR or IFR that has a value of $129 or $149, and the Sport/Private kit also includes a 20% discount card for any MyGoFlight product.”
