The Piper Navajo series—including the Navajo, Chieftain, and Mojave—has long been a staple for charter, business, and private operators seeking performance, reliability, and versatility. With its robust twin-engine design, advanced systems, and capacity for up to nine passengers, the Navajo is a favorite for demanding missions across North America and beyond. However, the very features that make this aircraft so valuable also demand a higher standard of pilot proficiency. At In Flight Review, our Navajo Initial and Recurrent Training Course is designed to ensure your pilots are not just compliant, but truly confident and capable in every phase of flight.
Operating a Piper Navajo is a significant responsibility. These aircraft are often used for air taxi, medevac, and executive transport, where safety and reliability are non-negotiable. Insurance underwriters and regulatory authorities recognize the complexity of multi-engine operations and typically require documented Navajo Initial and Recurrent Training Course completion for all pilots. This is more than a formality—focused training is critical for safe operations, risk mitigation, and protecting your investment.
Our Navajo Initial and Recurrent Training Course is comprehensive and hands-on, designed to meet FAA Practical Test Standards and exceed insurance requirements. The curriculum is split between ground school and flight instruction, both conducted in your own aircraft for maximum relevance.
Upon completion, pilots receive logbook endorsements, a certificate of completion, a biennial flight review, and an instrument proficiency check.
Every operator faces unique challenges. Our instructors begin by learning about your pilots’ experience, operational environment, and specific aircraft configuration. Whether you operate a standard Navajo, a Chieftain with turbocharged engines, or a Mojave, our curriculum is tailored to your needs. We incorporate your company SOPs, checklists, and mission requirements into every session, ensuring practical, real-world application.
Our instructors bring extensive Navajo experience, offering operational insights and scenario-based exercises that go beyond the manual. From engine-out procedures to advanced avionics management, we prepare your pilots for every situation.
Focused training translates directly to safer operations. Pilots who complete our program are more confident, make better decisions, and are better equipped to handle emergencies. This leads to fewer incidents, lower insurance premiums, and a stronger safety culture across your organization.
Training in your own aircraft builds familiarity and muscle memory. Pilots learn with the exact equipment they’ll use on every flight, reducing transition time and minimizing errors. Our scenario-based approach ensures pilots are ready for both routine and unexpected situations.
Our Navajo Initial and Recurrent Training Course meets or exceeds FAA Practical Test Standards and is approved by most major insurance underwriters. We provide all necessary documentation and logbook entries, making audits and renewals straightforward. Our team stays current with regulatory changes, so your pilots always meet the latest requirements.
We are committed to supporting your pilots’ ongoing success and your operation’s reputation for safety and professionalism.
