Correlational study finds a positive link between calendar days and flight hours in collegiate instrument pilot trainees, indicating that training duration impacts total flight time.
Understanding the efficiency of flight training in collegiate programs is essential as Part 141 training aims to create safe pilots with lower training times. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a relationship between the total flight hours and the total calendar days it takes to complete the FAA Part 141 instrument flight training course. We used a correlational design to analyze the relationship between the variables; the records used were those who had enrolled in the instrument course and successfully passed the instrument check ride. Examining the Part 141 flight school records at a collegiate program, we found a medium, positive correlation between total calendar days in the course and flight hours to instrument rating.
