About ANC Academy

Welcome to the best online flight training school you can find for flight simulator.



ANC Academy is an online live teaching service. No webinars, or pre-recorded videos. It's an experience where you can fully interact with the instructors. This blog is a simple collection of snippets of information that can help the enthusiast pilot, where a full lesson isn't necessary.

Our unique service in the enthusiast flight simulator space uses a modern approach and tools to instructing the modern flight simulator pilot. Thanks to our wealth of experience both in the real and virtual cockpit, we can provide training that emulates real world flight training, as well as create a bespoke experience to deliver the training that you want and need. 
We use official training guidelines as well as a modern teaching approach to provide our clients with the best training and experience possible.


Our four steps to ensuring mastery and understanding means that our clients get the best out of their training with us .

Briefing

Before each exercise our instructors go through the theory and practical aspects of the exercise so that our clients have a global understanding, and are given the opportunity to clarify any uncertainties or misunderstandings they may have.


Demonstration

Our instructors don’t just talk the talk, they also walk the walk. To put the explanations into practice, our instructors will follow up the brief with a demonstration of the exercise in question, talking our clients through each step, and pointing out important factors covered in the briefing.


Application

Our clients are now ready to practice and consolidate the skills themselves, under the watchful eye and helpful guidance of our instructors. Using their own simulator, and thus a setup they are comfortable with, the client gain a deeper level of understanding and be a better pilot by the end of the session.


Debriefing

At the end of the session are clients discuss their experience and performance with the instructor, who will help them see which areas they have performed well in and which ones require more attention on. To ensure that information doesn’t go to waste, our instructors fill out a student record log which is sent directly to the client.

Secondary Flight Controls: What They Are and How They Work

Image
In addition to the primary flight controls, which allow pilots to adjust the attitude of an aircraft in the sky, there are also several secondary flight controls that help to fine-tune the aircraft's performance. These controls include the throttle, mixture, flaps, elevator trim, and carb heat. Let's take a closer look at each of these controls and how they work. The throttle is a lever that controls the amount of fuel being delivered to the engine. By increasing or decreasing the throttle setting, the pilot can increase or decrease the power output of the engine. This, in turn, affects the speed and altitude of the aircraft. The throttle is typically located on the left side of the cockpit and is operated with the pilot's left hand. The mixture is a control that adjusts the ratio of fuel to air being delivered to the engine. By leaning the mixture, the pilot can adjust the fuel flow to match the amount of oxygen available at different altitudes. This helps to optimize the

What is Airmanship? The Art and Science of Safe and Efficient Flight

Image
Airmanship is the art and science of safely and efficiently operating an aircraft. It involves a combination of technical knowledge, physical skills, and decision-making abilities that enable pilots to navigate the complex and ever-changing environment of flight. In this article, we will delve into the details of airmanship and explore what it takes to be a proficient and proficient pilot. At its core, airmanship is about understanding how an aircraft works and how it reacts to various inputs and conditions. This includes knowledge of the aircraft's systems, such as the engines, hydraulics, and electrical systems, as well as an understanding of the physical principles of flight, such as lift, drag, and thrust. Pilots must also be proficient in the use of the aircraft's controls and instruments, as well as in navigation and communication. But airmanship is more than just technical knowledge. It also involves the ability to make good decisions under pressure and to adapt to ch

What is Threat and Error Management?

Image
Pilot threat and error management (TEM) is a set of strategies and techniques that pilots use to identify and mitigate potential hazards and mistakes during flight. It is a critical aspect of aviation safety, as it helps pilots to anticipate and prevent accidents and incidents from occurring. TEM has a long history in the field of aviation, with early efforts to address human error in aviation dating back to the 1930s. One of the key concepts in TEM is the recognition of threats. A threat is any factor that has the potential to compromise the safety of a flight. Threats can be external, such as bad weather or a malfunctioning piece of equipment, or internal, such as fatigue or distraction. It is the responsibility of the pilot to identify and assess these threats and to take appropriate action to mitigate them. The next step in TEM is error management. Errors are actions or decisions that deviate from the correct or expected course of action. They can occur at any stage of flight and c
