This study aims to develop a Flight Training Device (FTD)-based learning medium for Cessna 182T Skylane, designed for Indonesian Air Force Academy (AAU) cadets in an introductory flight training program. The research employed the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) research and development model. The research subjects consisted of 50 AAU cadets selected through purposive sampling. Data collection instruments included expert content validation questionnaires (21 items, 1–4 scale), expert media validation questionnaires (19 items, 1–4 scale), and cadet perception questionnaires (25 items, 1–5 scale). The effectiveness of the medium was measured using normalized N-Gain analysis based on pre-test and post-test scores. Results showed content feasibility at 95.97% (Very Feasible), media feasibility at 92.50% (Very Feasible), and cadet perception at 93.04% (Very Good). The N-Gain analysis yielded a mean value of 0.5265, classified as "Moderate" according to Hake's (1998) criteria. This study concludes that the Cessna 182T Skylane-based FTD is feasible and effective as an introductory flight training learning medium at AAU.
