The DA40NG is the latest addition to the Flight Center fleet. It is a sleek, fast, and modern aircraft with the first of its kind, a diesel JET-A powered engine. For pilots who have been so used to classic engine controls such as throttle, propeller, and mixture, the DA40NG simplifies it all with one lever. Who wouldn’t want to fly that? San Carlos Flight Center is pleased to introduce the DA40NG in this seminar. Join Chief Pilot Herb Patten as he provides an overview of the key differences present in this aircraft compared to others of its class. He’ll explain the various mission profiles the aircraft is capable of, and the associated training and requirements for SCFC pilots. Join us to learn more about the DA40NG. Pilots of all levels interested in flying a modern, simplified aircraft should attend this presentation.
