3. Flight simulator training programme

Flight simulator training primarily addresses the second major goal of pilot training windshear recovery techniques. Training and practice will be provided in critical pilot functions, which include operational precautions, use of standard operating techniques (to improve cockpit recognition of a windshear encounter), and the recommended recovery techniques for inadvertent windshear encounters.

Flight simulator training objectives

provide pilots with the necessary experience and skills to:

Recognize onset of a severe windshear encounter using available flight instrumentation;

Coordinate cockpit activities to improve the pilot’s ability to recognize and take the appropriate actions to recover from an inadvertent windshear encounter;

Make proper use of pitch, power, and airplane configuration to recover from an inadvertent windshear encounter.

Flight simulator curriculum

Pilots should be thoroughly familiar with the material contained in the ground training programme prior to flight simulator windshear training.

A flight simulator training programme (other than recurrent) should include at least one encounter in each of the following three phases of flight. Recurrent training should include at least one of the following on a rotating basis during successive training periods

a) Take-off prior to VR

b) Take-off after VR

c) On approach

Pilots should be trained in the proper windshear recognition criteria and crew coordination and the correct use of pitch, power, and airplane configuration to control flight path.

The training scenarios should have windshear encounters of sufficient severity to allow the pilot an opportunity to develop windshear recognition skills as well as recovery procedures. In addition to windshear training scenario containing environmental conditions conducive to windshear such as turbulence, heavy precipitation, rapidly changing airspeed, etc., windshear training scenarios should also be offered in which no turbulence or rapid airspeed changes are presented. Actual windshear events have occurred where turbulence was absent.

1. General

Prior to conducting Low Visibility Take-Off, Category II operations, each flight crew member must completes the training and checking requirements including Flight Simulator training in operating to the limiting values of RVR and Decision Height appropriate to the company’s Category II approval. The flight crew qualification is specific to the operation and the aeroplane type. Flight crewmember training programmes for Low Visibility Operations include structured courses of ground, Flight Simulator and/or flight training.

This training course addresses the following subjects:

Approaches authorized by the AAC Ceiling and visibility requirements for takeoff, approach and landing; Allowance for inoperative ground components; and Wind limitations (crosswind, headwind and tailwind).

This training ground course is completed during initial training and every calendar year simulator training is completed.

Flight crewmembers with no Category II experience must complete the full training programme. Flight crewmembers with Category II or experience on another aeroplane type may undertake an abbreviated ground, Flight Simulator and/or flight training course.
