Daytona Beach Campus - College of Aviation
Embry-Riddle Flight Training Department
Where the Eagles Fly!
College of Aviation Tutor and Computer-Based Training (CBT) Labs
Labs are normally open seven days per week and are covered by tuition
fees. Lab hours vary to accommodate student needs.
 The College of Aviation Tutor Lab (AB144) provides “no-cost” tutoring for
all College of Aviation students.
 During lab operating hours, there are normally two experienced tutors available.
A variety of “hands-on” aids is available. Student tutors provide instruction
to students who seek assistance in all aspects of flying and flight training,
and studies in all Aeronautical Science academic classes. In addition,
selected tutors can offer help with Air Traffic Management, Meteorology, and
Safety classes.
Tutor Lab Contents:
PCATDs (Personal Computer-operated Aviation Training Devices)
Training devices are convertible from single engine to twin engine, and are
capable of simulating flight for training in basic attitude instrument flying
(BAI), radio navigation, and all instrument flight procedures, holding patterns,
instrument approaches, missed approach procedures, etc.
 GPS practice stations: Two Bendix/King KLN 94s and two Garmin G 430s
Variable-pitch propeller assemblies, feathering and non-feathering, flight
and gyroscopic instruments, etc.
Videotapes and DVDs
The CBT (computer-based training) Lab offers a wide variety of excellent,
effective software programs that provide individual study and practice.
CBT Lab Contents:
Thirty-nine computer stations, connected
to network and printer.
All stations have Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004,
and joysticks.
leim practice exam and tutorial program for FAA exams
VFR and IFR Air Traffic Control communications practice program
Boeing 747-400 Aircraft Systems Tutorial Program
Aerosim Boeing 747-400 Virtual Flight Deck software program
Virtual Training System (VTS) for Piper and Cessna airplanes
Garmin G-1000 GPS Glass Cockpit Training Program
Both labs are normally open seven days per week. Lab hours vary to accommodate
student needs.
AB-256: Aircraft Performance Lab
In Aerodynamics and Aircraft Performance classes, students learn the math and
physics of concepts and principles of aerodynamics, and how math and physics are
utilized to create performance tables, charts, and graphs for large jet transport
airplanes. Application in labs enhances understanding and learning.
Thirty student computer stations
AB-257: Flight Technique and Electronic Navigation Lab
Students learn the complete operation of large jet transport
airplanes, their systems and
procedures. They learn to program and operate electronic, automated flight
decks, and
to fly large jet airplanes with great precision. Students practice working
effectively as
two-pilot crews. All knowledge and skills acquired in lower-level classes
are applied
for operating jet transport airplanes, correctly and precisely. A sophisticated,
realistic
Boeing 747-400 Virtual Flight Deck software program provides the actual “flight”
environment.
Thirty students (Separate stations for fifteen two-pilot crews)
