Safety Considerations When Choosing a School

There are many considerations to be made when choosing a flight school that will prepare for your career in aviation. The following provides some points of interest you should explore in making your decision about which flight school will provide not only the best, but the safest training available. Do the training aircraft have?
  • Simulators/FTD: Helicopter simulators/FDT to complement the training provided in each aviation flight course. Our simulators provide the opportunity for specialized training that is difficult to replicate in actual aircraft. From emergency training to flights into the busiest airports in the United States, UND students are given the opportunity to excel in every aspect of their training.
  • ADS-B: (automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast) this system allows pilots to "see" other aircraft as well as terrain features that may minimize the possibility of midair collisions and CFIT (controlled Flight into Terrain).
