Big news at Upper Limit Aviation! We just added a brand-new Redbird AATD (Advanced Aviation Training Device) to the flight line! 🛩️⚡️

Why does this matter for your flight training? An FAA-approved AATD isn’t just for practice—it directly logs real time toward your pilot certificates and ratings, saving you thousands of dollars while keeping your training moving regardless of the weather.

Here is how much time you can log in our Redbird toward your goals:

- Private Pilot (PPL): Log up to 2.5 hours toward your initial license. Master cross-country procedures, instrument scanning, and emergency flows before taking off.

- Instrument Rating (IRA): Log up to 20 hours toward your instrument rating. Perfect your holding patterns, approach procedures, and partial-panel operations at a fraction of the hourly wet rate of an aircraft:

- Commercial Pilot (CPL): Log up to 50 hours toward your commercial certificate requirements. Build procedural discipline and handle complex flight scenarios efficiently.

- Instrument Currency: Keep your instrument privileges active (6-6-HIT) without spending a dime on fuel or safety pilots.

Train smarter, log real time, and stretch your flight training budget further.

📍 Ready to take the controls? Book your next session with your instructor or stop by the front desk to get checked out on the Redbird!

Who says ground school has to be dry? At Upper Limit, we believe the classroom should be just as fun as flying! ✈️

Skip the heat and head inside. Jump into our BATDS (Basic Aviation Training Device) to polish your instrument procedures, practice cross-winds, or just get some extra stick-and-rudder time in the AC.

Why Train on the BATDS?
- Log countable hours toward your ratings efficiently
- Lock down your instrument scans and procedure workflows
- Get instrument current (6HITS)

🚨 WINDSHEAR 🚨⬇️

What would you do if you encountered windshear on short final?

It’s a scenario every pilot should be prepared for, even if they hope they never experience it.

In this reel, Sean explains the immediate actions to take if you encounter windshear close to the runway:

✅ Apply full throttle and full forward power.
✅ Maintain controlled flight.
✅ Leave the flaps alone. They’re already providing valuable lift, and retracting them too soon can make the situation worse.
✅ If your airspeed continues to bleed off while you’re trying to hold altitude, you may need to lower the nose. At only a few hundred feet above the ground, that can feel counterintuitive, but preventing an aerodynamic stall takes priority.

The correct response to windshear on short final requires quick decision-making, a solid understanding of aerodynamics, and trusting your training. That’s why practicing scenarios like this on the ground is just as important as practicing maneuvers in the air. You have to stay ready!
