Any condition that does not allow the pilot to maintain natural visual references‚ such as clouds or terrain‚ can cause SD. Whilst pilots can compensate by learning to fly using cockpit instruments‚ a malfunction such as a vacuum failure‚ in less than desirable visual meteorological conditions (VMC) can also cause SD‚ with the same lethal results. While some pilots are introduced to the concepts of SD during their flight training‚ general aviation pilots still have misunderstandings about what

also heard that accidents occur more often because of pilot errors and less so because of mechanical problems. But why? Why do pilots make errors? What kind of errors do they make? According to Malcolm Gladwell’s book‚ The Outliers‚ a large number of plane crashes happen because of miscommunication and language issues. There are two places where miscommunication occurs: among pilots in the cockpit and between air traffic controllers and pilots. And‚ there are two major reasons for miscommunication

ARGUMENT/SYNTHESIS PRE-WRITE 1. What is your topic? Arming Pilots. 2. What is your claim? Pilots should not be armed. 3. What is your thesis sentence? Supporters of arming pilots argue that it a better solution than equipping airplanes with sky marshals and that it would considerably enhance the security of airplanes. However‚ crucial constraints‚ such as the risk of crash that can be caused by a bullet hole in the airplane‚ the fact that pilots can’t be blindly trusted to carry guns‚ and the fact

the old system will be replaced by the new system in small groups‚ across similar separate locations. If this is successful‚ then the pilot is extended until eventually replaces the old system completely. Within each location‚ the cutover is direct. * Advantages: * Easy to control‚ the pilot can be halt at any time. * With this strategy‚ the pilot can be stopped at any time during the implementation process. * Easy to evaluate because the new and old systems are both running

Debate over Retirement Age Questions 1. Should all pilots have to retire at the age of 60? As I read the article it seems to be an interesting point that has risen. Several questions come in to play when considering if a pilot should retire or have the capability of remaining working. As one would see it on one side. There are pros and cons to either way you look at the situation. Looking at the history of implementation of pilots being forced to retire at age 60‚ it was first introduced back

reduced separation standards‚ increased capacity and efficiency of flight operations‚ and it provides for greater airspace flexibility while maintaining or enhancing the quality of our environment. ADS-B monitoring will be an additional task for pilots to manage but the greater accuracy of traffic information over radio position reports should improve situational awareness of ADS-B traffic and ultimately decrease a pilot’s workload. Ultimately‚ ADS-B will increase safety while decreasing airspace

Licensing is an important branch of the Operations Department. This branch is required to manage the pilots training requirements. The branch ensures that Pilots undergo the mandatory training syllabi and that their training and license status are current. This department interacts with the DGCA and follow up licensing and rating endorsements with DGCA. The training department is also responsible to monitor pilots’ medical status. The department plans and executes the training schedule in conjunction
