After seeing and flying the AL172 at EAA Air Venture, Oshkosh 2021,\nand previously speaking to many ALSIM owners, I knew it was the training device\nour students and CFIs had to have. The whole team is excited to have the simulator\ninstalled in the very near future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ALSIM AL172, built to FAA FTD Level 5 standards and\nalready certified as an AATD, is an exact replica of a brand-new Cessna 172SP\nSkyhawk with a real Garmin G1000 NXI and GFC700 auto pilot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Based at John Rodgers Airfield (PHJR), Barbers Point Flight\nSchool describes its business as a self-paced, self-study school with the most\nmodern fleet of aircraft in the state. All of their flight instructors are\ntop-tier, and their maintenance department is not outsourced.
