THE THREAT IS REAL
WAKE TURBULENCE• Reduced ATC Separation• Congested Air Space• “Super” Category Aircraft
AIRCRAFT MALFUNCTIONS• Flight Control Anomalies• Engine Failures• Pilot Static Failures• Automation Anomalies
SEVERE WEATHER• Thunderstorms• Wind Shear• Icing/Precipitation
PILOT ERRORS• Distraction• Channelized Attention• Task Saturation
WHY YOU NEED UPRT TODAY
PILOT EXPERIENCEMany pilots are not given exposure
to aircraft attitudes beyond thelimits of normal operation...
and the average experience levelamong new-hire pilots is dropping!
TRAINING MANDATESThe FAA, CAA, JASB and EASA
are on track to require all airline and corporate
pilots be trained in UPRT
CUSTOMER EXPECTATIONSLOC-I accidents and regulatory attention put Upset Accidents in the news…Your customers demand safe operations and trained crews
REACTION BASED TRAINING REQUIREDNearly all Upset Accidents occur in Night or IMC situations, many at low altitude…Immediate Recovery actions are Essential
SIMULATOR TRAINING IS NOT ENOUGHNo exposure to the “Startle Factor,”
G-loading, disorientation or post-recovery dynamics
LOSS OF CONTROL INFLIGHT LOC-I IS NOW THE NUMBER ONE CAUSE OF AIRCRAFT FATALITIES, SURPASSING CONTROLLED FLIGHT INTO TERRAIN

WHY CHOOSE ?
RSW AVIATION COMPETITION
LARGEST CIVIL TUCANO FLEET SMALL FLEET/SINGLE AIRCRAFT
GLASS COCKPIT G500, GTN750Part 91/121/135 similarity including limitations/failures
ANALOG INSTRUMENTATION No longer used in professional aircraft
Negative transferrence
FULL IFR CAPABILITY IFR training capability Fewer Weather Delays during training
VFR OR LIMITED IFR Student cockpit has limited instrumentation
PURPOSE BUILT TRAINER Realistic Control Inputs Jet-like speed and recovery characteristics
COMPETITION AEROBATIC AIRCRAFT Extremely maneuverable, unnatural control feel
Slow airspeeds and unrealistic recovery characteristics
COMPLEX AIRCRAFT Retractable, Tricycle Gear with Flaps Capable of multiple stall recoveries Instructors hold AEA rating (Identical to ATP standards)
NON - COMPLEX AIRCRAFT Fixed Conventional Gear
No Flaps No Special Instructor Qualifications
TURBOPROP ENGINE Reliable, no attitude or throttle limitations Quiet and Air Conditioned
PISTON ENGINE Loses performance in hot weather
High noise environment limits student performance
