CIRRUS TRANSITION

The transition course is designed to accumulate current and proficient pilots into all models of Cirrus aircraft to VFR proficiency level. The course will teach you the unique operating procedures of the Cirrus aircraft for both normal and abnormal situations. The Transition course is designed to take approximately three (3) days to complete. Timely completion of this course is dependent on the performance and proficiency of the Cirrus pilot and completion of the required prerequisites. Transition training does not constitute a FAA practical test, Biennial Flight Review or an Instrument Proficiency Check. All Cirrus pilots should follow the recurrent training schedule outlined in the Cirrus Pilot Learning Plan after successful completion of this training event. Successful on-schedule completion of the Transition course is heavily dependent on devoting the proper amount of time to reviewing and studying the pre-training material. The Transition course is composed of seven required lessons  and one optional lesson with a total of ten hours minimum course flight time. The course should take approximately three days to complete the required lessons. Cirrus pilots should keep in mind that these are absolute minimums, and that successful completion of the course is dependent on meeting the required desired outcomes.
