The best simulator to sharpen your skills and stay current anytime
Ergonomic Design Enhances Learning
Traditional "desktop" flight training devices sit on top of a table or desk, causing the pilot to reach up for the yoke and to look unrealistically high for the gauges and outside visuals. The Redbird TD is different. Designed with the ergonomics of flight in mind, the TD´s unique mounting system allows it to be mounted under the table, placing the yoke, switches, gauges and visuals in the correct and most realistic position for the pilot. This innovation is one of the many enhancements that makes the TD the most realistic and effective training on the market.
Sharpen Your Skills ... Anytime!
Whether you are a flight school interested in enhancing your training with simulation, or an individual pilot looking to hone your skills and stay current from the comfort of your home or office, the Redbird TD is the perfection solution.
- Start your flight on the ground at any airport or in the air
- Fly day or night in VFR or IFR conditions
- Practice aircraft failures and emergency procedures
- Shoot instrument approaches to minimums at any airport in the world
- Practice cross-country flights to unfamiliar airports before you get in the airplane
Maintain Your Instrument Currency
With the optional rudder pedals, the TD is approved as a Basic Aviation Training Device by the FAA. That means that you can log instrument currency for approaches and holding right at home. Not only will you save time and money, but with a good currency plan, you will stay sharp by regularly practicing the real-world failures that can occur including vacuum failures for analog instruments and loss of your Air Data Computer on the G1000. While regularly practicing instrument flying in the airplane is critical to safety, you can get prepared and stay sharp by incorporating the TD into your overall currency plan.

Flight Schools:
Enhance your training options by adding a simulator to your "flight line"—at a very low cost of acquisition and ownership. For only $6,995 ($7,995 for the TD2 model) you can substantially increase the quality of the training you provide your customers by incorporating a simulator into your syllabus. There is good reason why most insurance companies insist on sim training to fly jets. You can practice failures and situations that simply would not be safe in the air. Don´t just talk to your students about dealing with difficult situations, put them in front of the TD so they can practice the skills that can be a true life-saver!
NEW! TD2 Model Available for Complex Airplane!
The Redbird TD now also comes in a TD2 model that adds propeller and gear controls to the hardware and manifold pressure gage and gear position indicators to the display. If you are flying a complex airplane, you will want this model to ensure you complete your GUMPS check at the right times. The TD2 model also allows the selection of a "simple" airplane, which disregards the prop and gear controls, giving you the option to start with the simple model and grow into the complex, or to select the right model for a customer in your flight school.
Includes everything you need to begin flying
- One cockpit configuration (analog or G1000)
- 27" monitor
