The purpose of Flight Simulation is to generate interest in the fields of avionics aeronautics and aviation. Students gain an understanding of the skills involved in flight, not just from the piloting standpoint but the engineering and physics behind flying. Students are engaged in hands-on and conceptual perspectives by working with mentors and trainers who instruct and inspire them to explore …
