Flight Schools, Reduce Dropouts & Increase Profitability
The Challenge
Nationally, as many as 70–80% of student pilots begin training but never complete their Private Pilot License. Research shows five primary causes of attrition: cost, time, instructor quality, proficiency setbacks, and motivation.
Let’s Fly VR and True Course Simulations directly address these challenges through immersive, standardized, and accessible VR-based flight training.
How Immersive Training Devices Reduce Drop-out Rates
Top Dropout Factors
1. Cost & Affordability
Students practice procedures and maneuvers in VR before entering the real aircraft. Although our ITD is not FAA ATD certified, Virtual lessons cost a fraction of in-aircraft training and make time in the real aircraft more effective and efficient. Think of it as chair flying but better!
2. Time & Scheduling Conflicts
VR lessons can be completed evenings or weekends—no weather, maintenance, or aircraft delays. Keeps training consistent and students engaged.
3. Instructor Turnover & Quality
True Course Simulations delivers FAA-based, standardized virtual instruction with performance tracking. It’s a force multiplier, ensures consistent quality and builds student confidence.
4. Medical or Proficiency Setbacks
Students maintain skills and confidence in VR even if grounded or awaiting medical clearance. Helps prevent skill decay and keeps motivation high.
5. Motivation & Expectations
Immersive realism, mission-based progress, and gamified achievements keep training engaging. sustains enthusiasm and personal connection to flying.
💡 The Result
Immersive Training Devices transform flight education by helping students remain motivated and engaged throughout their pilot journey.
Let’s Fly VR in partnership with True Course Simulations bridge the gap between aspiration and achievement—helping students stay the course and earn their wings.
