Developed to meet JAR-FSTD A requirements for FNPT I certification the single-pilot ELITE S712 FNPT I is a cost-effective and versatile flight training device featuring dynamic control loading. It can be configured as either a single engine or twin engine aircraft from a range of types in ELITE's portfolio. Optionally it can be configured as convertible training device including both a single and twin-engine layout, enabling versatile initial and recurrent training for the PPL.

FNPT I

The ELITE S712 FNPT I features a single pilot, fully enclosed spacious cockpit with a separate detached instructor's station. It is certifiable under FAA regulations as an AATD and under CASA regulations as a Level B FSD2 training device.

As with all ELITE FSTD, the S712 FNPT I is upgradeable to the next level of certification (FNPT II) to accommodate any new requirements.
