US Online Flight Training Platform Skyfarer Academy Empowers Students With New Guide to Select Ideal Flight Instructor

USA – Skyfarer Academy, an aviation training platform, has released a new guide titled “How to Choose the Right Flight Instructor for Your Pilot Training”, aimed at helping student pilots make more informed decisions during the instructor‑selection process.

Read the full guide here.

This follows last month, in September, Skyfarer Academy had released its Pilot Flight Training Report 2025, a nationwide survey of 215 respondents.

“A nationwide survey conducted in 2025 gathered insights from 215 respondents, revealing systemic inefficiencies, inconsistent instruction, financial hurdles, and a widespread lack of guidance at the start of the flight training journey,” shared Skyfarer Academy.

See the full report here.

In August Skyfarer Academy had completed the acquisition of Instructair, combining two complementary digital platforms to create a unified online and in-person aviation training marketplace for pilots and instructors across the United States.

  • Skyfarer Academy launched in October 2024 as an online aviation training platform providing live flight and ground instruction to aspiring and experienced pilots.

  • Instructair built a network platform that helped pilots find available instruction and reconnect with inactive instructors.

  • As part of the merger, Instructair’s website and app will be discontinued, with user accounts, instructor profiles, and listings migrating to the Skyfarer Academy platform.

  • Sensitive data such as financial information, government IDs, and airmen certificates will not transfer.

  • The combined platform offers:

    • Access to flight instructors for both online and in-person training.

    • Tools to discover, book, and manage training sessions.

    • Expanded resources for pilots working on initial certification, additional ratings, or proficiency checks.

ALSIM Launches its New AL2006 Tecnam Simulator

Global — flight simnulator manufacturer ALSIM is proud to announce the launch of its brand-new AL2006 simulator, specifically designed to replicate the Tecnam® P2006T NG aircraft – widely recognized as the world’s most fuel-efficient twin-engine aircraft and a benchmark in modern twin-engine aviation.

The AL2006 faithfully reproduces the Tecnam® P2006T NG, a highly regarded, cost-efficient multi-engine trainer. Designed to EASA FNPT II and FTD Level 5 standards, offering a full-size flight deck replica, a semi-enclosed instructor station, active control loading, and a specific flight model based on aircraft flight characteristics.

For maximum realism, the AL2006 is equipped with an immersive visual system featuring three high-definition laser projectors, enhanced by a vibration cueing system, and delivering an impressive 210° x 50° field of view. It also includes the original Garmin® G1000 NXi and GFC 700 autopilot, ensuring an authentic experience that closely replicates the real aircraft’s cockpit environment — a world first for a P2006T NG simulator.
