LOFT Scenarios
Line Oriented Flight Training with FAA WINGS credit
What is LOFT?
Line Oriented Flight Training
LOFT scenarios simulate real-world flights from departure to destination, including weather challenges, ATC interactions, and decision-making scenarios used by airlines for recurrent training.
FAA WINGS Credit
Each scenario is available at Basic, Advanced, and Master WINGS levels. Complete with a CFII to earn credit toward your FAA Pilot Proficiency Awards.
Airline Standards
Train with active airline pilots using the same scenario-based methodology used at major carriers. Build decision-making skills, not just stick-and-rudder.
