Elements and Performance Criteria
- Plan an operational flight management training scenario
- Typical commercial or military flight operation conditions including normal and abnormal operations, are identified
- Training scenarios that require management of planned and unplanned inflight situations are designed, including simulated abnormal and emergency operations
- Training scenarios that involve knowledgebased solutions and flight management activities that assess and resolve less defined events, are designed
- Sufficient timeframes and realistic workloads are allocated in the scenario design to enable trainee/s to meet objectives without being overloaded
- Realistic scenario plan is developed with sufficient detail to ensure learning outcomes can be achieved without improvisation when airborne
- Hazards are identified, risks are assessed and hazard management is implemented
- Learning activities are designed that ensure components of competency are emphasised and reinforced
- Prepare trainee/s for scenariobased flight training
- Trainee/s existing level of operational knowledge is identified and gaps in knowledge are rectified as required
- Scenariobased session plan is discussed with trainee/s
- Objectives and outcomes of session plan are explained to trainee/s
- Application and context of session is explained to and confirmed with trainee/s
- Trainee/s role with regard to command status, decision implementation and trainer assumption of control, is confirmed
- Scenariobased learning including multiple solutions to problems and the session not being formally assessed, is explained to and confirmed with trainee/s
- Deliver training
- Presentation and delivery methods are adjusted to cater for trainee characteristics and to meet learning outcomes
- Trainee responsibility for planning and conducting a flight is explained
- Environment that simulates a typical civil or military air task is established as required
- Dimensions of aviation competency are emphasised and reinforced during presentation of training sessions
- Flight scenarios are logically sequenced with clear transition and linking of events that provide variety, encourage participation and reinforce dimensions of aviation competency
- Verbal feedback and motivation are provided to assist trainee in achieving session outcome
- Intervention and assumption of control is applied as required to ensure flight safety
- Situational awareness is maintained to ensure situations that might jeopardise safety are not allowed to develop
- Detailed record of flight events is maintained
- Training sessions are reviewed and modified as required to meet trainee needs
- Conduct post-flight discussion
- Process, rationale and benefits of post-flight discussion are explained to trainee
- Trainees are encouraged to lead discussion including evaluation of their own performance and quality of self-assessment
- Assistance in recalling sequence of events is provided as required
- Flight events, actions and results of decisions are identified, analysed and feedback is provided to trainee
- Trainee are encouraged to examine whether alternative actions may have resulted in better outcomes
- Constructive feedback and reinforcement is provided to trainee
- Review delivery of scenariobased flight training
