    Logging ATD or FTD Sim Tim on IACRA?

    If a student receives simulator time from a Redbird SD (an AATD), which column on the IACRA 8710 form would the student log it in? The FTD or ATD column? It seems that the IACRA form is still outdated and does not reflect the 2008 changes that occurred when the FAA split ATDs into two...

    I'm finishing up my CFI-I and hope to teach instrument students soon. I want to simulate ATC instructions as authentic and proper as possible to my future students. I was wondering if there is all-encompassing document out there that contains all ATC phraseology (approach clearances, holding...

    Tips for Flying in the Right Seat?

    Just started flying CFI training and trying to chew bubble gum and talk at the same time....

    Is 2.9 HR Hobbs time normal for 1 hr & 36 min of real-time flight time?

    Yesterday, I rented out a Piper Archer and did a quick XC (83 NM [166 NM round trip]) with my friends. When I returned back to home base, I was surprised to see that the Hobbs meter indicated that I was out for 2.9 hr! The flight did not feel like 2.9 hours. After referring to FlightRadar...

    Still confused logging IFR training in sim?

    I apologized if this question has been asked too many times. I did my best to interpret part 61.51 and 1.1 for verbatim definitions, but I often find them vague. Anyways, I am a private pilot that had two IFR training flights in the sim last week, specifically in the Redbird SD (an AATD). I...
