• 200 hr pilots are facing several

challenges on their first type rating

in Multi Pilot Aircraft.

• How can we help them?

Flight training is expensive

• Self-sponsored students will look for the cheapest alternative.

• Licence.

• MCC.

• MPA type rating.

Licence training

• Enough to pass the licence skill test.

• Enough for airline operations?

The 200 hr pilot Limited stick and rudder experience:

• Stall recovery.

• Cross-wind.

Limited IFR experience:

• IFR navigation from A to B.

• Holding, racetrack and DME arc.

Limited experience in decision making:

• ”The instructor is always right.”

13 |



The challenges

1. Standardization of procedures.

2. Expensive simulators.

3. Time factor in training.

14 |



Standardization?

North America Rest of the world

15 |



Standardization?

1000 ft before level off, the call is:

a) ”One thousand to go”

b) ”One thousand above/below”

c) ”One thousand, altimeter xxxx”

d) ”Pre-level” / ”pre-altitude”

e) ... YOUR CHOICE ...

16 |



SOP for training organization

SOP from manufacturer

Instructor’s opinion

SOP for airline company

Captain’s opinion

17 |



Suggestions

1. ICAO should develop SOP for procedures and call-outs not related to aircraft type.

2. Aircraft procedures should be set by the manufacturer after guidelines given by ICAO.

NASA study:

Two groups of pilots was given simulator training in a specific number of scenarios.

• First group: With motion.

• Second group: Without motion.

They was then tested (with motion on).

• The second group got the highest score.

Visual system: Rotation

Motion system: Tilt

Suggestions

1. Consider 3 hour simulator sessions.

2. Avoid night sessions for type rating.

3. Give the students ample time for preparations.
