JetBlue History

• Began Operations in 2000• Operating Domestically and Internationally throughout the

Americas and the Caribbean• Began E190 operations November 2005

− 7 aircraft without HGS because of certification timing• Every pilot, instructor and check airman certified in dual HGS

equipped full motion simulators• April, 2010 – 151 total aircraft, 41 E190s all dual HGS

equipped

Philosophy

• Traditional Philosophy− Single HGS device− Only on Captains side− Only used during low visibility operations

• JetBlue’s Philosophy− Dual HGS devices− Used for all ground and flight phases

Page 6: WATS 2010 Orlando Flight Standards and Training April 27-29, 2010.

Philosophy

• Why dual HGS?− Experience with devices in a 121 environment− Experience with the tools− Keeps pilot more “in the loop” to fly an aircraft− Cost savings over traditional autopilot systems

Page 7: WATS 2010 Orlando Flight Standards and Training April 27-29, 2010.

Training for Dual HGS

• Philosophy− Primary Instrument with Specialized Training− Integrated into Systems Training; Videos− Supported in all Briefs (FTD / FFS)

• Equipment− All FTDs and FFS are equipped with Dual HGS*− FFS has repeater at the Instructor station

Pilot Adaptation

• Positive Feedback− Most have no prior HGS experience but feel very comfortable with

device before the end of their training− Valuable tool for all phases of flight− Valuable tool for non-normal events

– Windshear, Engine Failure, Collision Avoidance, Terrain Avoidance, Low Energy State, Upset Recovery

− Not one safety report in four years of operation attributed to its use

Training for Dual HGS

• Amount of Training for Non-HGS experienced Pilots− Learning style-based approach (4 phases of proficiency)− Multiple media types to allow each learning style to assimilate

functions• Lessons Learned

− Essential to have exposure to HGS during initial simulator training− Emphasize ways to provide greatest benefits− Identify differences from other displays

• Our Recipe for Success− AQP-like focus on Integrated training in every aspect for Dual HGS− As many touch points as possible− Learning style-based approach for every student

What’s Next?

• Low Visibility Operations− LVTO (300 RVR)− CAT IIIB approaches (600 RVR) Hand Flown (Currently CAT II)− FAA extremely happy− Crew Buy-In
