Auburn Flight Management adds Cessna with “glass cockpit” technology
Auburn Flight Management, part of the Aviation and Supply Chain Management program in the College of Business, added to the Auburn aircraft fleet last week a new Cessna 172 with computerized "glass cockpit" technology. This eagerly anticipated addition will allow students the opportunity to learn to manage and fly technically advanced aircraft -- elevating Auburn to the same level of technology enjoyed by larger collegiate aviation programs throughout the country. The investment by AU and the College of Business will give Aviation Management and Professional Flight Management students a competitive edge when they graduate, said John Youell, interim chief flight instructor.
