FLYRIGHT’S KING AIR 200 SIM GETS COMMUTER CATEGORY QUALIFICATION

LAS VEGAS, NV, NBAA CONVENTION, NOVEMBER 17-19, 2015: FlyRight’s King Air B200 simulator has been qualified by the FAA at Level C for training and checking of pilots in accordance with Commuter Category weights and performance, up to a maximum gross weight of 13,420 pounds.  The simulator is located at the company’s Charlotte area headquarters.

“FlyRight has provided the BE200 Type Rating on the simulator since 2012, so the Commuter Category qualification of our simulator is a natural evolution for us,” said Jim Klepper, Training Center Manager.  He added that the program was supported by Centex Aerospace, Inc., to support their Halo 250 IGW Conversion STC.  The Halo 250 STC increases the maximum Gross Takeoff Weight for the King Ari 200 series to 13,420 pounds and places the aircraft into the commuter category.  FlyRight continues to offer their 7-day, simulator-based Initial + Type Rating and 5-day Recurrent + Type Rating courses.
