Abstract
The VIQUMO Flight Planning App presents a significant opportunity to address the challenges faced by student pilots in accessing crucial flight information. Its integration into training programs at WCC Aeronautical and Technological College and other aviation institutions could streamline learning processes and enhance overall efficiency. By leveraging VIQUMO’s features, such as real-time weather updates and comprehensive flight plan data, student pilots and flight instructors can improve their decision-making and operational effectiveness. Additionally, flight operations teams stand to benefit from VIQUMO’s capabilities to optimizing workflow and minimizing disruptions. Future research in this area can further explore opportunities for innovation and improvement in digital flight planning tools, ultimately advancing safety and reliability in aviation training and operations. VIQUMO has been a huge help to major problems found by the respondents and also the researchers. Our applications shows a simulation with the possible flight planning within a controlled and risk-free environment. It would serve as bridge onto the gap of safety and hassle free giving them the opportunity to be aware of what is happening within the flight training environment. Flight operations could benefit from our environmentally friendly. The applications reporting tools with the assist of tracking a student’s involves safety and identifying the possible risks during the flight which this could lead to more safe training outcomes and a higher standard of flight planning and tracing.

Abstract
Common problem of students of WCC-ATC and the student pilots around the globe is that the effect of the teaching style of their flight instructor is in line with their style of learning.This quantitative research investigates the correlation between the flight instructor's teaching styles and the flight performance of students at WCC Aeronautical & Technological College Binalonan. This study employs a structured survey instrument to gather data to 50 currently flying students and assess the effectiveness in enhancing student's flight performance. This study looks at how student pilots' flight performance is affected by the assimilation and accommodation-focused teaching styles used by flight instructors. These teaching styles were formulated based on the Theory of Developmental Change via Schemas of Jean Piaget. Students stated that questions that link theory to practice; assimilation are more frequently encountered, even if instructors mainly employ demonstration; accommodation. This implies that a variety of Teaching Styles are used with students. On their most recent flight training, most students obtained satisfactory grades. It's interesting to note that early in the training process, there wasn't much of a correlation between the flight performance and teaching style. By the fifth training session, however, a weak link had been found between the flight performance and demonstration based teaching style. These results indicate that although instructors prefer demonstration, students may benefit more from a mix of methods. This has to be verified, and further study is required to examine the effects of various teaching styles during flying training.

Abstract
Embarking on a journey into the skies, this study aims to investigate the different struggles of the students during their flight training, effectiveness of the miniature aerodrome in aiding their struggles, and performance of the students after using the miniature aerodrome as their visual teaching aid. Pre-Solo flight trainings are one of the most challenging phases of a flight training in the journey of becoming a pilot and the researchers came up with an idea of developing a miniature aerodrome as a visual teaching aid. Pre-solo undergoing flight training encounter some challenges as they navigate through the skies such as area familiarization, aeronautical decision-making, knowledge retention and procedure application. are also essential to become a competent pilot. Utilizing these visual aids will support the pre-solo students to have a realistic view of what was just being taught through word of mouth and through images. For a comprehensive understanding of the miniature aerodrome, it was designed with the runway view, landmarks, and scale aircrafts. This study also investigated if there are changes in their flight performance of the student when having the traditional method of teaching and learning with the miniature aerodrome. Data for this study was gathered through online questionnaires and the respondents were chosen randomly with the criteria of pre-solo student. The respondents were provided with checklist to assess the area wherein they struggle the most during their flight trainings. In addition, the respondents had their pre-tests before using the miniature and pre-tests after number of students utilized the tool. Furthermore, the best features of the aerodrome and features that needs improvement were assessed for a better usage. In conclusions, this study aims to identifying the struggles encountered by the students during flight trainings, features of the aerodrome, performance of the groups and improvements needed of the model.
