How It All Started

IMG_5904_cropped.png

We are two seasoned pilots with a combined experience of over 55 years and 30,000 flight hours in commercial aviation. Our expertise includes roles as both instructors and examiners.

 

Throughout our careers, we have observed a lack of effective and interactive tools to aid in the learning, comprehension, and retention of the knowledge essential for daily operations in a commercial jet.

 

Key questions we’ve pondered include:

 

•⁠  ⁠How can pilots effectively practice and rehearse memory items, abnormal maneuvers, and flight patterns?

•⁠  ⁠How can they maintain a practical understanding of aircraft systems?

To address these challenges, we launched iTrain B737NG in 2014, expanding it over the years to include the B737 MAX and A320 series.

 

Recognizing a similar gap in automation training, we began developing an interactive autopilot app. The current training for the B737’s automation is primarily limited to CBT and static PDF materials. Our B737 Autopilot Trainer was designed to provide a strong foundation for understanding how the system works, moving beyond mere memorization.

 

While creating the app, we engaged in discussions with colleagues about their understanding of the AFDS (Autoflight Director System). These conversations often sparked insightful exchanges, revealing a genuine interest among pilots in deepening their knowledge of the AFDS and how to use it effectively.

 

All of this is now encapsulated in our B737 Autopilot Trainer, a resource crafted by pilots, for pilots. 🛫🛬
