Instrument Proficiency Check Course
Whether you haven't flown an instrument approach in years or you fly IFR on every flight, this comprehensive course will make you a safer, smoother pilot in the clouds.

It's broken down into 38 brief segments for easy studying, and works on all your devices (iOS, Android, online, Apple TV, and Roku). A review quiz based on content from the videos will test your knowledge at the end, and after finishing the questions you’ll receive instant feedback on your score.
