Redbird Flight Simulations is changing things up for its next Migration Flight Training Conference, an annual gathering of flight training professionals.
The conference, which the company previously hosted in October, will now take place in the first quarter of each year. And the 11th annual conference will be in a new place: Lakeland, Florida, home to SUN ‘n FUN. Past conferences have been held at the company’s facilities in Texas.
“As we weighed our options for the event at the end of 2021, we determined it was in the best interest of Migration right now and moving forward to hold the conference at the beginning of the year,” said Redbird COO Charlie Gregoire. “We have discussed this possibility for a while based on the feedback we have received from attendees, and we think now is the opportune time to act on it.”
The next Migration Flight Training Conference will be held Feb. 8-9, 2022, at the Dean and Liz Ramos Innovation Center on the Aerospace Center for Excellence campus in Lakeland, Florida.
The conference will feature a slate of breakout sessions, including from FlightAware Founder and CEO Daniel Baker and Cirrus Aircraft President, Customer Experience Todd Simmons.
In 2021, Redbird launched its first annual State of Flight Training Survey and Report, developed to take the pulse of the flight training industry and provide flight training professionals with strategic data. Redbird will conduct the survey in January of each year and present initial insights from the results at the Migration before it releases the official report in March.
The Migration Flight Training Conference is free to attend.
