Avsoft’s Upset Prevention and Recovery Training (UPRT) Course explores:
- Weather-induced upsets: icing, turbulence, and thunderstorms
- System-induced upsets: flight control failure and autopilot failure
- Pilot-induced upsets: lack of monitoring, overadjustment, spatial disorientation, and incapacitation
- Energy states of an aircraft
- Aerodynamics: including aircraft forces, center of gravity, lift vs. AOA, AOA vs. airspeed, lift over drag curve, and load factor
- Aircraft handling at high altitude
- Upset assessment: energy level, situation, and communication
- Stall recognition and recovery
- Nose high and nose low upsets
Each module concludes with a test, and when all the modular tests are successfully completed, a certificate of completion is generated.
Customers also have the option of creating a final exam.
