5 Page 5 of 26 PART 02: INSTRUCTIONAL METHOD The general instructional methodology is based on Lesson Plans that include all the flight and synthetic flight exercises imposed by the BCAA in CIRC FCL 6 / 9 / 11 /13. These circulars are themselves based on the requirements of JAR FCL 1. Lesson Plans are repeated as necessary during subsequent flights, until the student reaches a satisfactory degree of competency. Each lesson plan has three parts: The pre-flight briefing: this briefing should last about 45 minutes (not less than 30 minutes) This part must cover the following units: 1. Preparation: review of the manoeuvres to be executed (operating procedures, sequence, completion standards, etc.) 2. Explanation: give the student a clear idea of what he is expected to do during the flight; keep explanations simple and review earlier flights or manoeuvres if appropriate, together with the introduction of new material. a. What: nature of the manoeuvres and their specifics b. Why: discuss the principles involved, and how the exercises fit into the whole syllabus c. How: discuss each manoeuvre as a whole, then step by step, and as a whole again. Mention common errors and discuss what should be done and what should be avoided. d. When: apart from the training session, discuss in what other times the student shall have to use the specific manoeuvre. Synthetic flight instruction: The duration of a synthetic flight session is indicated in the Lesson Plan, and should not exceed 90 minutes airborne time The in-flight instruction: The duration of flight is indicated in the Lesson plan (each flight should last about 90 minutes -airborne time) This part must include the following units: 1. Demonstration: the instructor shall explain (as close as possible to the pre-flight briefing) the manoeuvre, as he performs it. He shall keep the demonstration to a minimum, as appropriate, and allow the student to learn by practicing as much as possible himself. Follow me through method of instruction must be avoided as much as possible. 2. Practice: The instructor shall correct the student the first time an error is made, avoiding that it sets by allowing him to commit it several more times. These corrections should however be made at an appropriate moment during the manoeuvre, or discussed later on the ground; 3. Evaluation: the instructor must determine if the student has a clear idea of the principles involved and the actions to be performed. He shall also determine if the progress on the manoeuvre is satisfactory, if it has to be repeated or not, or if other manoeuvres have to be repeated to achieve the successful completion of the one at hand. The post-flight debriefing: which should last 15 to 30 minutes. This part must include the following units: 1. Evaluation: Again, the instructor shall determine the overall progress of the student along the course and identify the possible areas of concern on which more work will be dedicated. He shall ensure the student has the basic skills to further complete the training programme. If not he shall identify which remedial actions or training might be required to bring the student to standards. 2. Review: the instructor shall make an overall critique of the whole flight lesson, covering both good and bad areas, and mentioning specific items and instances (avoiding generalisations) In his critique, the instructor shall remain: o o Objective, specific, and acceptable: no personal opinions, but facts. The critique must be fair and given with authority, sincerity and conviction. Flexible: the critique must fit the actual flight conditions and situation (not the previous ones)

6 Page 6 of 26 o o Comprehensive: he must cover strengths and weaknesses altogether Constructive and thoughtful: the student must be able to improve from it, and his value as an individual must never be minimised. 3. Planning: The instructor shall briefly cover the plans for the next lesson (repeat of the Lesson Plan or new Lesson), discuss the schedule and assign reading and preparation tasks COURSE NOTES AND MATERIAL The CPL(A) Flight Training course is based on the Oxford Aviation Training Manuals. These manuals that comply with JAR FCL-1, cover in detail all the exercises the trainees need to perform, and provides all the necessary information required during the training. Manual 1: Airlaw Manuals 2, 3, 4, 5: Aircraft general knowledge (Parts 1, 2, 3, 4) Manual 6: Flight Performance & Planning STUDENT PROGRESS EVALUATION Student progress evaluation is made in two ways: Through the FLIGHT TRAINING PROGRESS FORM: on which each instructional lesson is recorded, in order to determine that the programme is unfolding in a regular and orderly way: a. Green area: the programme is completed as scheduled and progress is normal b. Yellow area: additional flights were necessary to reach a satisfactory standard of completion. Progress is slow. c. Pink area: additional flights are still necessary to reach a satisfactory level of completion. There are serious concerns about the progress of the student and the Chief Instructor / Head of Training must be informed. Refer to Section 1 Part for further details over student assessment and grading levels. Through a PROGRESS CHECK (Progress Checks 1) a. Progress Check 1 is taken at the end of the flight training and is a general review in preparation of the Skill Test. It is expected that the student scores at least all S s, but one or two R s is acceptable. Should the student fail the check, the Chief Flight Instructor and the Head of training must be informed immediately, and an evaluation of the student s capabilities must be made. The student will be offered several options regarding remedial and additional training. b. Progress Check tolerances: 1) The student must demonstrate the ability to: i. Operate the aeroplane within its limitations, and to maintain control at all times in such a manner that the successful outcome of a particular manoeuvre or procedure is never seriously in doubt, ii. Complete all manoeuvres with smoothness and accuracy, iii. Exercise good judgement and airmanship, and to demonstrate and apply sound aeronautical knowledge. 2) The following limits (cfr. CIR FCL 9, Para 13) are given for general assessment guidance. Allowances for turbulent conditions and handling qualities of the aeroplane used should be accepted by the instructor. Height control: Maintaining altitude (level flight): ± 100 ft Starting a go-around at DH: + 50 ft / - 0 ft Minimum descent height/altitude at MAP: + 50 ft / - 0 ft Tracking: On radio-navigation aids: ± 5

7 Page 7 of 26 Heading: All engines operating: ± 5 With simulated engine failure: ± 10 Speed: Takeoff & Approach: All other flight regimes: ± 5 kts + 10 kts / - 5 kts LESSON PLANS Flight instruction is based on 7 Lesson Plans intended to train the student in a progressive and efficient way. The three first Lesson Plans (LP 01, 02, 03) must be performed on a complex aeroplane (constant speed propeller, retractable landing gear, and certified for the transportation of 4 persons), or a multi-engine aeroplane. The four last Lesson Plans cover cross-country flying. The last lesson plan includes the Progress Check which covers as well general flying as cross-country flying. The instructor is allowed to adapt the lesson plans in order to take into account the flight conditions (weather, ATC, aircraft / systems serviceability, or availability. It is however his responsibility to make sure that all the exercises, procedures and items scheduled in the programme are suitably covered at the end of the training. Each Visual flight Lesson Plan is programmed for one hour and a quarter flight time (airborne time). The crosscountry flight Lesson Plans are scheduled for longer flights to allow navigation to distant airports through different airspace categories. As the flight training programme is progressive, the Lesson plans should be given in the stated serial order. If it appears that a Lesson Plan has not been completed to a satisfactory level, it should be repeated on the next flight, and indicated on the Flight Training Progress Form. If the training is progressing well, the student will have completed the program in the required 15 flight hours. Should a Lesson Plan need to be repeated, it will be at the cost of additional training, and the student must be made aware of that fact! NOTE: The Lesson Plans for night flying are identical to those depicted in Section 2A Night Flying Qualification, which satisfy the requirements of CIRC/FCL 11. Refer to that Section if Night Flying Instruction is required in a particular CPL course.

Clear the working area and practice unusual attitudes with full panel: o Set the aeroplane in a banked (30-45 ) nose high (20-30 ) attitude, with low power. Hand over to student for recovery. o Set the aeroplane in a banked nose low attitude, with high power. Hand over to student for recovery o Repeat as necessary, until achieving proficiency. b. Practice the Instrument Pattern (as defined in CIRC/FCL 6, Ex. 11) o Start the exercise and decelerate to approach speed; set flaps in the approach configuration o Initiate a standard rate turn (left or right). o Roll out on the opposite heading, and maintain that heading for one minute. o Perform a standard rate turn (left or right), extend the landing gear and descend at 500 fpm o Roll out on the initial heading; maintain that heading for one minute, and maintain the rate of descent of 500 fpm. o Transition to straight & level flight, 1000 ft below the initial exercise altitude, and maintain for one minute. o Initiate a go-around o Climb out at best rate to the initial altitude. c. Repeat the exercise as necessary, until full proficiency is achieved COMMON DIFFICULTIES: DEBRIEFING: Unusual attitude recoveries are too slow or too abrupt (stall or dynamc stall occurs during the manoeuvres) The student has poor scan techniques during the pattern: headings, altitudes, rates are unsteady. The piloting is imprecise. a. Review all the exercises performed during the flight. b. Review next lesson exercises and required preparation.
