FlightSafety International Partnership
POPA's Training Partnership with FlightSafety
POPA is pleased to offer the FlightSafety Preferred Rate Program, which provides special pricing to POPA members operating PC-12 and/or PC-24 aircraft. This unprecedented agreement with FlightSafety provides significant cost savings for POPA members enrolled on the One-Time and Event Based Training Programs. POPA members can now prepare for real-world situations using simulation that is extremely realistic utilizing FlightSafety's FAA Approved Level D full motion simulators. FlightSafety offers PC-12 training at the Dallas (Legacy and NG) and Denver (NG only) Learning Centers, while PC-24 training is taught at the Dallas and Paris Learning Centers.
In the past, Level D simulator training has been cost prohibitive for many, but through this exclusive partnership with FlightSafety, the cost has been reduced significantly. The savings easily cover the POPA membership fee, which is one of the many valuable benefits for becoming a POPA member.
POPA's Board of Directors is committed to elevating the Pilatus experience through two primary goals: enhancing operations and continually improving safety of the fleet. In light of FlightSafety's professional and industry leading training, along with the competitive pricing being offered to POPA members, POPA's Board now endorses FlightSafety International as POPA's official recurrent training partner.
It is POPA's sincere hope that members will take advantage of the Preferred Rate Program during their next PC-12 or PC-24 training event. If a member has not experienced a Level D simulator, they will quickly realize the value it delivers, not only to every day flying, but ultimately, to safety.
Please note: FSI/POPA Preferred Rate Program pricing is not available to Part 135 Owners/Operators.
