prevention and recovery concepts and procedures in
large transport airplanes
Federal Aviation
Administration

ATP Certification Training
Program
• § 61.156 – Training requirements for an initial
ATP-Multiengine Airplane Certificate
– 30 hours academics
– 10 hours FSTD: 6 hours FFS; 4 hours FTD
• Course must be FAA-approved
• Part 121, 135, 141, & 142 certificate holders
are eligible providers
• Added instructor requirements
• Prerequisite to the ATP-Multiengine
Airplane Knowledge Test

Approval Process Overview
• Field Review:
– Applicant works with POI or TCPM
– Review § 61.156; AC 61-138; Job Aid
– Forward to Region once satisfied all requirements have
been met
• Region Review
– Follows similar review to validate requirements are met
before sending to headquarters.
• HQ Review
– Both AFS-200 & AFS-800 review for standardization
– Tspec/Ops Spec is issued once HQ memo received and
all findings have been addressed.

Rulemaking – Part 121
Qualification, Service, and Use of Crewmembers and
Aircraft Dispatchers Final Rule
•
•
•
•
Published on November 12, 2013 with 5 years to implement most
provisions (March 2019)
Amends certain regulations for part 121 training programs
Requires pilot training for:
− Recognizing, avoiding, and recovering from stalls;
− Recognizing and avoiding aircraft upset;
− Manual flying skills;
− Crosswind maneuvers including wind gusts;
− Pilot monitoring; and
− Runway safety procedures.
Requires remedial training programs for pilots who have
demonstrated performance deficiencies

Rulemaking - Part 60
Flight Simulation Training Device (FSTD) Qualification for
Extended Envelope and Adverse Weather Event Training
NPRM
• Initiated to address simulator fidelity
• Proposed:
– Full stall simulator evaluation criteria
– Upset prevention and recovery
training
– Enhanced airborne icing modeling
• NPRM comment period closed
January 2015
• Part 60 standards will be in place to
allow time for air carriers to modify and
evaluate FSTDs before the part 121
N&O compliance date

Rulemaking – Part 135
Helicopter Air Ambulance, Commercial
Helicopter, and Part 91 Helicopter Operations
Final Rule
– Final rule published February 21, 2014
– Amends equipment and operations requirements for
helicopter air ambulance operations
Federal Aviation
Administration
14
Rulemaking – Part 135
Helicopter Air Ambulance (HAA) Pilot Training
and Operational Requirements
– NPRM in development
– Public Law 112-95 directed FAA to initiate second
HAA rulemaking
– Purpose: Develop HAA pilot training requirements
and operational safety requirements for pilots and
medical personnel
Federal Aviation
Administration
15
Rulemaking – Part 135
HAA rulemaking – Considerations:
– Minimum number of hours for training programs and
requirements for scenario-based training through
line-oriented flight training (LOFT).
– Requirements for protective gear such as helmets,
flame resistant clothing, and shoulder harnesses, in
order to increase accident survivability.
Federal Aviation

LOC-I
Loss of Control and Recovery Training
(LOCART)
– Goal: Develop harmonized guidance on loss of
control and upset prevention and recovery training
on-aircraft and in a flight simulator
– ARC meetings held in Montreal to facilitate work with
ICAO, EASA, and other national aviation authorities
– U.S. guidance being updated to support final rules
which modified stall and upset training requirements
for ATP training and part 121 operations
– AC 120-109A, AC 120-111
Federal Aviation
Administration
17
LOC-I
• AC 120-111, Upset Prevention and Recovery
Training
– Published, April 2015
– Key Principles:
• Early recognition of divergence from intended flight path.
• Upset prevention through improvements in manual handling
skills.
• Crew-oriented training that integrates crew resource
management including progressive intervention strategies
for the pilot monitoring.
Federal Aviation
Administration
18
LOC-I
• AC 120-109A, Stall Prevention and Recovery
– Anticipated Publication: Summer 2015
– Key Principles:
• Reduce angle of attack when confronted with a stall event.
• Use realistic scenarios that could be encountered in
operational conditions, including stalls when the autopilot is
engaged and high altitude stalls.
• Stall Prevention (Approach to Stall): execution of the stall
recovery procedure at the first indication of a stall.
• Stall Recovery: (Full Stall) instructor led training, but must
allow the pilot to experience the associated flight dynamics
and execute a recovery
