Initial $5,800
(up to 4 days)
The PA46 initial training designed for pilots transitioning into PA46 piston and turbine models (Matrix, Malibu, Mirage, M350, Meridian, M600). Just like the Pros, we use the Line Oriented Flight Training (LOFT) approach to build your confidence and proficiency to fly your PA46 aircraft.
Recurrent $1,800
(up to 2 days)
The PA46 recurrent training is designed to refresh your knowledge about the airframe, systems, procedures and flying characteristics of your plane. You will continue to build proficiency flying your PA46 aircraft.
IPC $800
(4-6 hours)
A good pilot trains often! The instrument proficiency check is designed to maintain and improve your proficiency flying in IMC conditions. Instead of flying ‘rapid fire’ approaches we continue to leverage the LOFT approach. Our recommendation is to complete IPC training every 6 months. Weather permitting, we’ll fly in IMC conditions.

Travel Day: If we need to travel to pick up your aircraft and/or reposition it to KIKV before the training, daily travel rate of $1,000 will be charged in addition to the standard training fee.
