Multi-Pilot Aeroplane In-Flight Manoeuvres Training

Learning Outcomes

• Demonstrate the ability to plan and brief in-flight manoeuvres in a multi-pilot environment.
• Apply standard operating procedures (SOPs) to execute steep turns, stalls, and other advanced manoeuvres.
• Analyse flight parameters and make timely corrections to maintain aircraft control within limits.
• Evaluate crew coordination and communication during manoeuvre execution to optimise safety.
• Implement emergency descent and upset recovery techniques in a multi-pilot setting.
• Assess the impact of environmental factors (e.g., turbulence, wind shear) on manoeuvre performance.

Target Audience

This course is designed for commercial pilots who hold or are working towards a multi-crew pilot licence (MPL) or type rating, and who need to demonstrate competency in multi-pilot aeroplane manoeuvres.

Prerequisites

None — open enrollment

Course Outline

Practicals

Overview

Practical sessions involve hands-on flight simulator training where learners practice multi-pilot manoeuvres and crew coordination. These sessions are essential to develop proficiency in operating multi-pilot aeroplanes and managing in-flight situations.

Practical Activities

• Simulator Session 1: Pre-Flight and Departure — Learners practice cockpit setup, engine start, taxi, take-off, and departure procedures in a multi-pilot simulator. (5h)
• Simulator Session 2: En-Route Manoeuvres and Emergencies — Learners practice en-route manoeuvres, including steep turns, unusual attitude recovery, and emergency procedures like engine failure. (5h)
• Simulator Session 3: Approach and Landing — Learners practice instrument and visual approaches, landings, go-around, and landing emergencies. (5h)
• Simulator Session 4: Integrated Full-Flight Scenario — Learners fly a complete flight scenario from pre-flight to shutdown, incorporating multiple abnormal situations. (5h)

Summatives

Each delegate is assessed continuously throughout the course via daily exercises, scored practical assignments, and a final summative test at the end.

Practical Assignments — 30%

Practical assignments are observed and scored against a rubric during the practical sessions. Each delegate's practical mark is averaged into a single 100% score and contributes 30% to the final total.

Daily Exercises — 20%

Every training day ends with a multiple-choice exercise scored out of 100%. The scores from each daily exercise are averaged across the duration of the course to produce a Daily Average mark, which contributes 20% to the final total.

Final Test — 50%

On the last day a final summative test is written. It is a multiple-choice paper with multiple-answer questions: each question may have more than one correct option, and a single wrong selection on a question marks the entire question wrong — no partial credit. The final test is scored out of 100% and contributes 50% to the overall mark.

Final Total

Component	Out of	Weight
Practical Assignments (rubric-scored)	100%	30%
Daily Average (multiple choice)	100%	20%
Final Test (multi-answer multiple choice)	100%	50%
Final Total	—	100%

All marks are recorded on the AATICD LMS and visible to each learner under their account.

Certificate

How it works

• Certificates are auto-generated on the AATICD LMS as soon as the marks pass the 50% threshold.
• Each certificate is a branded PDF with the delegate's name, the course title, the unit standard ID, NQF level, credits, and the date of issue.
• You can download or print your certificate from your LMS dashboard at any time after issue — there's no reissue fee and no expiry date.
• If you scored under 50% you can sit the final test again at the next scheduled session at no extra cost.

Where to find it

Sign in to the LMS, open your dashboard, and your certificates appear under My Certificates. Each entry has a View / Download button and a print option.
