Sporty’s Releases 2019 Learn to Fly and Instrument Rating Courses

New Android app, new test prep tools make Sporty’s the most user-friendly courses available

Sporty’s has released the 2019 editions of its Learn to Fly and Instrument Rating courses. Even with the significant enhancements, the prices for both courses remain the same and pilots who have purchased previous years’ courses automatically gain access to the 2019 edition free of charge.

“Three years ago we set out to take our courses to the next level, and with this edition we believe we have the world standard in pilot training courses,” said Sporty’s Academy President Eric Radtke. “Pilots can now train anywhere, from laptop to smartphone, in a modern style with HD video segments and powerful test prep features.”

Online course users will appreciate the enhanced test prep tools. Detailed analytics show pilots which topics need the most work, and smart study sessions automatically tailor questions to each user’s specific needs. Individual quiz questions offer detailed explanations, complete with interactive reference links for further study. The result is more effective and efficient knowledge test preparation. Plus, a comprehensive video search tool makes it easy to review specific topics.

Keeping your flight instructor in the loop is easier than ever in the 2019 edition. CFIs are able to view a complete listing of all videos in the course and which have been completed. CFIs can, in turn, assign segments to review and stay apprised of completed material. Plus, CFIs can see completed practice tests with the ability to access that session and see how the student is performing.

“Of course there’s a lot more than just technical improvements,” says Radtke. “We’ve added many hours of new HD video content, covering important topics like ADS-B technology, Air Traffic Control procedures, weather flying, communications tips, and much more.”

Continuing its growth as a fully integrated training platform, CloudAhoy is now integrated into the courses. Users can connect their CloudAhoy account to their Sporty’s course so any flights logged with CloudAhoy will sync, including a listing of each flight maneuver from the lesson. What’s more, every maneuver shown in the CloudAhoy flight log will be connected to the corresponding maneuver guide in Sporty’s courses for quick review. Last year’s courses integrated with ForeFlight and Redbird, and further integrations are already in the works.

Introducing Sporty’s Pilot Training App for Android

The 2019 course editions can now can be accessed through a native Android app for phones, tablets and Chromebooks. The Pilot Training app allows pilots to stream video segments or download them for offline viewing, and also offers customized study sessions. With the addition of this app, pilots can learn wherever it’s convenient: via Windows or Mac with the online training portal, on iPads and iPhones with the dedicated iOS app, on a big screen with the Apple TV app, and on Android devices.
