The Baron Recurrent Course is scheduled for one day and consists of the following minimum programmed hours:
Classroom training...........4.0

Many insurance companies require recurrent simulator training and several of them offer discounted premiums to pilots that complete a yearly training program.
GROUND SCHOOL
Often overlooked, this is an important element of your recurrent experience. I use a PowerPoint presentation to review the following systems:
Aircraft Fuel System
Engines/Propellers
Environmental Systems/Pressurization System (P58)
Electrical Systems
Landing Gear
Anti-ice/Deice
Flight Controls
As an A&P mechanic, I can explain the airplane's systems in more detail than other instructors.
TRAIN IN THE SIMULATOR:
In flight shutdown and restart
Engine failure on takeoff/climb/enroute
Visual approach with one engine inoperative
Emergency descent
ILS with one engine inoperative
Non precision approach with one engine inoperative
No flap approach and landing
Missed approach with one engine inoperative
Engine fire
Severe ice accumulation
Of course, non emergency system failures are also reviewed in the simulator:
Electrical failures
Gear failure
Autopilot failure
Smoke control
Pressurization failure (P58)
The simulator is also used for normal procedures including:
Holding
ILS/VOR/LOC/GPS approaches (Garmin 430)
Stalls
Steep Turns
Rejected landings/Go-arounds
In order to complete your training, we will review the following items:
Flight Director
Autopilot usage
Nexrad (if equipped)
Radar (if equipped)
Navigation/Avionics systems
Normal instrument approaches
Unusual attitudes
Take-offs and landings
TRAIN WITH AN EXPERIENCED BARON INSTRUCTOR:
It is rare to find an instructor who has the experience in a Baron and the teaching skills to help you operate your airplane efficiently and safely. Here is my experience:
I flew Barons for a charter company for 2 years.
I am the Chief Pilot of a restaurant chain flying a King Air 90.
I took an early retirement from the airlines to offer my students a professional, peer-to-peer training environment.
My experience includes 20,000+ hours as a Captain with US Airways.
I am licensed in Single and Multi-engine airplanes as an ATP, CFI, CFII-MEI. My type ratings include Airbus A319/320/321, Boeing 767/757/737, DC-9, Fokker F100/F28, EMB-110 and the Cessna Citation CE-500. Also, I have obtained a Flight Engineer rating and an A & P mechanic's license.
I have 30 years of instructional experience in twin engine aircraft. As a former check pilot and flight instructor on the Boeing 737, my responsibilities included reviewing the abilities of Captain and First Officer's for competency to fly passengers in airline operations.
I am an FAA Lead FAAST Team Safety Counselor for the SC/NC area.
I have been awarded the FAA's "Gold Seal" and I've been named a Master CFI by the National Association of Flight Instructors.
I have authored nine aviation textbooks published by Mc-Graw-Hill.
I do all the training and have given over 1000 hours of Baron instruction.
