UPRT SEP(A)
COURSE DESCRIPTION
The Breeze Aviation UPRT programme should include clear training objectives stating what the trainee is expected to perform, and the desired learning outcomes. The trainee should be able to demonstrate the knowledge and skill in preventing, recognising and recovering from an SEP aeroplane upset before being considered as having successfully completed the UPRT.
The Breeze Aviation UPRT programme should emphasise pilot awareness of his SEP aeroplane performance at all times with the primary aim of preventing an aeroplane upset. Adhering to Standard Operating Procedures and employing Threat and Error Management (TEM) skills should be adopted as sound strategies to enhance awareness. During the training course the student is made aware of hazardous attitudes and their effect on flight safety. Safety awareness and risk management are a fundamental part of the course.
The DTO UPRT programme should focus on achieving trainee comprehension of aerodynamics, promulgating vigilance for detection of flight path divergence and emphasising the timely and appropriate intervention to correct the divergence. System anomalies and how they can lead to flight path deviation should also be included in the syllabus of the programme.
-
Startle or surprise has been a factor in LOC-I incidents and accidents as upsets that occur in normal operations are unplanned and inadvertent, adversely impacting recognition or recovery. Exercises which include the element of startle or surprise have been added to our training.
The DTO adopt a holistic, competency-based approach to UPRT by incorporating both academic and practical training in the curriculum.
