About Manhattan Flight Simulator
Manhattan Flight Simulator is a small operation catering to a specific IFR training need in General Aviation.  Scheduling is flexible and we will do everything to accommodate your training goals and busy schedule.
Most of us who work and live in the city know that the trip to General Aviation airports is a bit of a drag: almost no public transport available & deal with peak bridge & tunnel traffic.  We love flying and gladly put up with it. However, often enough required training can be done in a simulator with a fraction of the usual time investment. We are all busy and need to be smart about using our time & resources.

Simulator Enthusiast?
Enthusiasts are welcome and can book training sessions with an FAA instructor, however, they are for-fun only sessions and do not count towards any licenses.

Looking to become a pilot?
Unfortunately, we are not able to offer private pilot or commercial pilot training and we won’t be able to answer questions about it. As a start, please download this whitepaper on information where to start flying around New York:  “Learn to Fly around NYC” .

Happy Flying!
Your Manhattan Flight Simulator Team
