Jet transition course for
corporate pilots
Introduction
The purpose of the Jet transition course is to assist a
pilot who only has experience in piston driven aircraft to
advance to jet aircraft, and be ready to start a type rating course.
It will also expose the pilot to the fast pace
of a professional training program and increases the
chances of succeeding when going through
initial training.
The next major benefit is preparing the
pilot to transition from flying single-pilot to
operating an aircraft in a crew environment.
