I believe that $100 for a Redbird FMX is a good value as that $100 also INCLUDES the instructor and up to 20 hours can be logged in your logbook toward your instrument rating. I also believe that 20 hours of training is more like 30 hours of actual aircraft training as you will not have to worry...
The Redbird simulators are a great tool for our company. As the company grows we plan on expanding different platforms like multiengine or piper Meridian etc.
So far we've had a great turnout and awesome feedback from the public and from the users. I currently have about seven instructors...
