CE-525 and
CE-525(S) Recurrent
LOFT’s CE-525 Recurrent training is designed to keep you sharp, confident, and proficient in the CJ1 for the year ahead. Built on the same philosophy as our initial programs, this course focuses on reinforcing real-world decision-making, refining procedures you may not encounter every day, and ensuring you leave prepared to operate safely and efficiently.
The course is completed over three days at our Southern California training facility and includes two days of instructor-led ground school followed by simulator training in our CE-525 CJ1 Level C device. Training culminates in a §61.58 Proficiency Check conducted by an experienced in-house Training Center Evaluator.
Rather than simply checking boxes, our recurrent training is designed to challenge you in meaningful scenarios, reinforce best practices, and give you the opportunity to practice abnormal and emergency situations in a controlled environment.
