Sporty’s has updated its Learn to Fly Course with an expanded Sport Pilot training module, targeted at student pilots training in Light Sport Aircraft (LSAs).
In addition to new video segments and updated test questions, the course also includes interactive flashcards for checkride prep and a complete FAA library, according to Sporty’s officials. The course also offers an automatic test endorsement for the FAA knowledge test from Sporty’s flight instructors.
“With the boom in backcountry flying and LSA kitplanes, we’ve seen renewed interest in Sport Pilot training,” said Sporty’s Academy Vice President Bret Koebbe. “Our latest update makes Sporty’s course an all-in-one training solution for anyone pursuing this exciting part of general aviation.”
Nearly a dozen video segments have been added, including weather resources, normal and special-use airspace, how to use ForeFlight for airspace and weather planning, tips for flying with glass cockpit flight instruments, how to plan a cross country with a nav log, and how to use ADS-B transponders and datalink weather.
Sporty’s Learn to Fly Course is available for $279 and includes free lifetime updates. A free demo of the course is available at Sportys.com/Discover.
