Wish you could pause your flight lesson in mid-air? In traditional flight lessons, questions often go unanswered until the flight ends, and time in the cockpit can feel rushed. But with a modern airplane flight simulator—like the ones we use at our pilot training program in Maryland—you can pause the action and turn a moment of stress into an opportunity to learn. During your session, an instructor can quickly bring up regulations, diagrams, or even replay your last maneuver. It’s a key tool in aviation training courses, especially for students in our commercial pilot training program or those returning for rusty pilot training.

That said, smart pausing is essential. We encourage our students to stay in control of the pace: “Do you want to pause and catch up, or continue and work through it in real time?” This approach helps build decision-making and communication skills that are vital in real-world aviation. Whether you’re in our pilot development program, preparing for check rides, or just starting your first flight lesson, learning how to manage workload and make time-critical decisions is core to becoming a confident pilot.

At Solid Ground Aviation, we offer flight simulator training in Maryland, with our FAA approved Aviation Training Device (BATD), right near Baltimore and Washington DC. Our simulators are a valuable part of our flight safety training and aviation ground school, helping students progress faster and retain more. Come try a session and see how pausing at just the right time can move your training forward. Whether you're pursuing your private license or entering a commercial pilot training program, our flight simulator experience is ready to meet you where you are.
