Immerse Yourself

The traditional way to earn the instrument rating is based on the time-honored FBO model: You go to a local FBO, and they tell you it will take about 6 months to earn if you fly once or twice a week. Then you meet your CFII who, more than likely just started shaving within the decade you’re in, and is building time; aiming for a first officer job with a regional. You dig in, and, 9 months to a year of re-scheduling, maintenance issues and different instructors later, you might earn your instrument rating.

When looking at various options, many are turned off at the “you can earn it in 6 months” approach of the local FBO and the heavy reliance of FTDs (flight training devices) at some of the other accelerated schools. AFIT's approach appeals to the ideal that training time be spent actually flying. Another plus is training in your own airplane and gaining an obvious confidence and familiarity with the capabilities of your airplane.

Getting it Done> AFIT is on to something here. Proving their critics wrong, AFIT is graduating quality instrument rated pilots across the world using a non-traditional approach. With a growing menu of offerings that include not only instrument ratings but other courses including private and commercial, AFIT is proving that you can become a safe, confident, and proficient instrument pilot in just 10 days. And they guarantee it. If you’re going to run with the big dogs, AFIT might be just the place to start. Give them a look at www.afit-info.com.
