Choose from the following aircraft:
-
Beechcraft King Air

All the simulators have full instrumentation, including autopilots, CDUs, and full radio navigation capabilities, as well as moving map GPS systems. The Citation also has a fully functioning FMS (flight management computer). This is the real thing!
Fun for First-Timers
If you’ve never flown a real or simulated airplane before—don’t worry! We’ll have you up and flying in now time. In fact we offer a special $20 introductory flight designed to make your first experience in the simulator the best it can be.

Fly Into a Virtual World
When you step into your simulator cockpit, you’ll enter an entire virtual world. You’ll communicate with live air traffic control personnel, file a flight plan, and ask for clearance and taxi instructions. Because the simulators are networked, you’ll see other aircraft flying by as you encounter the other simulators in your group or visiting simmers from other SimPorts USA locations.
