Redbird Flight Simulations has released version two of Guided Independent Flight Training (GIFT) Private Pilot, the company’s AI-powered and simulator-based maneuvers training supplement.
Compatible with any Redbird training device, GIFT Private Pilot allows student pilots to learn, practice, and get feedback on every maneuver required for their private pilot certificate — all on their own pace.
Version two offers hundreds of variations and settings options for each of the 33 training tasks, including selecting the speeds students will be graded against for missions in which the ability to maintain specific speeds is imperative, according to company officials.
When the “Surprise Me” feature is enabled, the software will randomly select settings “to create highly realistic training scenarios that change unpredictably as students progress through a mission,” company officials add.
Version two also increases the fleet of aircraft, simulating the flight dynamics of any of the 30-plus aircraft configurations Redbird offers for its reconfigurable aviation training devices.
Customers who already purchased GIFT Private Pilot can upgrade to version two for free by updating the operating system of their Redbird simulator to Navigator v3.5.6.
