Course Description

This course is essential for any aspiring airline pilot. We begin by discussing the benefits of becoming a pilot, the pathways, how to get started, and how to find work. Human Factors in aviation are concerned with applying what we know about humans to an airline pilot's career. Did you know that a pilot’s personal traits are just as important as their skills? We explore pilots’ abilities, characteristics, and limitations, as well as how these affect the design of the equipment they use and the environments in which they function and perform jobs. 

Next, you will dive into Crew Resource Management (CRM). CRM is the effective use of all available resources, including crew members, aircraft systems, support facilities, and people, to achieve safe and efficient operation. To be a safe and effective airline pilot, you must understand CRM and be able to apply its concepts in day-to-day flight operations. This course will help you hone skills such as leadership, teamwork and situational awareness.

Threat and Error Management is another critical concept in modern aviation. Flight crews, regardless of rank or experience, must recognise that threats exist and can manifest at any time and in a variety of ways. Pilots must actively manage each flight, attempting to prepare for potential threats and errors and, if they occur, repairing any degraded safety margin and returning to safe operations. When combined with CRM and Standard Operating Procedures, this philosophy will help to avoid unwanted aircraft states and improve safety. So are you ready to reach new heights? Enrol now and take the first step towards an exciting career in the airline industry, today!
