Flight Level Aviation is a provider of advanced or recurrent instrument flight training for pilots of single-engine and multi-engine piston aircraft. Their particular specialties are training in the Cessna 210, T210, and P210 series of aircraft; IFR emergency training; and deadstick instrument approach training.

Published articles by independent sources describing the training techniques utilized by Flight Level Aviation include those in [http://rkaplan.hypermart.net/AOPA%20Simulator%20Article%20Color.PDF AOPA Magazine] , [http://rkaplan.hypermart.net/ABS%20Article/ABS%20Simulator%20Article.PDF American Bonanza Society Magazine] , [http://rkaplan.hypermart.net/Sim%20Session.doc IFR Magazine] , and [http://rkaplan.hypermart.net/Three%20Days%20Three%20Boxes.doc Aviation Consumer] . These articles outline this company's innovative approaches in (1) applying training techniques typically used for large jet aircraft at centers such as FlightSafety International and using such techniques for training pilots of smaller aircraft; (2) utilizing full-motion simulation technology for small aircraft trainiing; and (3) utilizing advanced avionics to resolve emergency situations previously without solution such as complete engine failure under instrument flight conditions.
