1.1 General

1. Welcome to CAE and the type rating course


You are about to begin one of the most important phases of your training as a professional airline
pilot.
Your entire course follows a pre-determined schedule (footprint) and you will be guided from
beginning to end by our experienced staff.
It should be stated from the beginning that this course will demand much of your attention, focus
and commitment. During training, you will learn to perform first simple, and then increasingly
complex tasks and manoeuvres at the controls of your aircraft, according to standard operating
procedures (SOP) and while maintaining good situational awareness, crew resource
management (CRM) and work together with your fellow pilot.
To optimize your learning experience and get you ready for any final examination, your progress
will be evaluated at several intervals during the course.
CRM remains an important part of this course and, you will be expected to apply it when
performing your duties as pilot flying (PF) or pilot monitoring (PM).
If your airline has a specific SOP, our instructors will use them diligently in all of your sessions.
You will be provided with course supporting documents to accompany each learning phase in your
course.
While at CAE, you will have unlimited use of our facilities, including our aircraft CMUs, so that you
can rehearse procedures from cockpit setup to flight termination.
CAE strongly encourages you to rehearse procedures with your crew partner in front of the CMU.
This team effort will only improve the outcome of your course.
You will be required to learn a number of procedures, profiles, responses to a normal checklist, a
take-off briefing and certain immediate actions. All these are included in your course
documentation or in your Aircraft FCOM/PRM.
Make wise use of your time in studying and preparing for this course in every way you possibly
can. Our ground and simulator instructors are here to assist you, to answer all your course-related
questions and to prepare you for the next phase of your training leading to a “License skill test”.
We wish you an unforgettable learning experience and hope you will enjoy our training center and
all that it has to offer.

6. Aircraft training
If aircraft training is a part of the national Civil Aviation Authority approved type rating training the
aircraft training will be conducted after the client successfully has passed the FSTD training and
license skill test.
For number of landings and flight conditions please refer to national Civil Aviation Authority
approved training organizations operations and training manual.

7. Pre-requisites for ZFT training programs


Specific requirements for pilots undertaking a zero flight time training course (ZFTT) in
aeroplanes.
For number of landings and flight conditions please refer to national Civil Aviation Authority
approved training organizations operations and training manual.

8. Philosophy of the type rating course


The type rating course is based on four basic principles:
• Systematic approach
• Integration training in all phases
• CRM integration
• Training to proficiency

Systematic approach
The course is built up from objectives. These objectives are determined with reference to national
Civil Aviation Authorities requirements and addressed in a systematic order. Instructional methods
are chosen for their qualities and adaptability to the objectives.

All aircraft types 1.1 General

Integration training in all phases


It is considered very important that practical exercises are included in each training phase to:
• Retain aircraft system understanding and procedures
• Expose the cockpit crew to their respective tasks in the cockpit environment

CRM/TEM
Crew resource management and treat and error management skills are integrated in the simulator
part of the training. CRM/TEM issues will be discussed during the briefings and other opportunities
depending on crew performance.

Training to proficiency
Throughout the training the goal is to teach the crew to carry out tasks proficiently, safely and
efficiently in accordance with approved procedures. When considered required objectives will be
re-trained to meet this goal.
Four phases are recognized during simulator training: handling, normal operations, non-normal
operations and LOFT. Each phase in the training is intended to fulfill a part of the objectives. A
client will only be permitted to migrate to the next phase if proficiency is demonstrated by a
progress or gate check for that phase or training.

9. Course description
The curriculum of the type rating courses includes both ground and simulator training.

10. Ground training


The ground training is divided in five parts:
• Theoretical knowledge training
• Flight management system (FMS) training
• CAE procedure training
• Testing and grading

Theoretical knowledge training


Theoretical knowledge training consists of:
• Computer based training on systems and equipment
• Stand-up instruction
• Homework self-study activities
For the theoretical knowledge training, distance learning course variants are available for the
majority of the type rating courses offered and made available to clients meeting the following
requirements only:
• Demonstrated experience of commercial multi pilot aircraft operations
• Attending a second or subsequent type rating

1.1 General All aircraft types

When the technical knowledge training is completed by distance learning an additional progress
check (entry check) is conducted but is not a pass or fail check, it solely serve as to determine the
weak areas for the client which is than additionally addressed by the assigned instructor during
the remainder of the course.
NOTE A distance learning module can also be made available to clients enrolled in their initial
type rating course, meant as a preparation course prior to their arrival at the training
center attending the basic type rating course; in that case no progress (entry) check
is conducted.

Integration training

Mock-up (paper tiger)


Mock-up training is programmed as self-paced as to train on locations, checklists and flows.

CPT (CAE procedure training)


The procedure training sessions are distributed as follows:
• CAE standard type rating course has 7 sessions of 2 hrs each + 2 sessions of 4 hrs each
• CAE expanded type rating course has 9 sessions of 4 hrs each
• CAE abbreviated type rating course has 7 sessions of 2 hrs each

Testing and grading


• Intake test (only valid for the distance learning option)
• Progress checks during the TKI phase
• Written theoretical knowledge examination incl. evaluation
The ground school examination shall be multiple-choice with a minimum 75% overall pass grade,
with a 75% pass grade per individual main subject.
The overall pass grade may be adapted (increased) according to customer needs.
At the end of the test the client will be briefed on the results and errors made.
Access to the simulator training shall be granted after successful completion of the theoretical
knowledge training program.
The lesson plan record issued at the start of training will be used to record progress and ground
school instructor's remarks during the ground school training phase.

11. Simulator training


A standard simulator training session consists of 4 hours of simulator training preceded by a 1½
hour briefing and followed by a 1 hour de-briefing.

All aircraft types 1.1 General

MCC requirement
Where the national Civil Aviation Authorities requires a completed MCC as a pre-requisite to
attend the first type rating and the client pilots do not meet those pre-requisites, CAE offers an
additional program to be added to the standard type rating course consisting of 2 days of instructor
lead ground training on CRM/MCC and 3 additional simulator sessions.

Expanded and standard type rating course


Simulator training for the type rating courses consists of 8 sessions (expanded) or 9 sessions
(standard) in total and is considered suitable for client pilots without previous experience of
commercial two pilot operations attending their first type rating.
NOTE Instrument approaches will be exercised down to CAT I limit. For approaches and
landings down to the certified visibility limits a low visibility training module is available.

Abbreviated type rating course


For client pilots with previous experience of commercial two pilot operations attending a second
or subsequent type rating CAE is able to offer an abbreviated, lighter course consisting of 8
simulator sessions in total. This course also omits the use of the two 4-hour CPT sessions and
may, pending the AC type, be combined with a partially distance learning ground program
preceding the abbreviated simulator training program.
NOTE When a crew is composed of both experienced and non-experienced crew members,
the standard or expanded course is highly recommended.

12. Examination

Skill test
The skill test is conducted on a crew during a standard simulator session including briefing and
debriefing.
Before a client is signed off to do the skill test the client shall be considered able of demonstrating
the requirements as set out by the national Civil Aviation Authorities.

Examiner
CAE will ensure that the designated examiner is acceptable to the State of License Issued of the
client, provided that the completed pre-course assessment form of the client, displaying the
correct license issuing authority, is provided to CAE by the Customer in due time prior to the check.
In the event that the Customer wishes to change a client attending the type rating course at the
latest moment, this may cause delays in the acceptance of the examiner by the relevant State of
license issuing authority to the clients check. In such case, CAE will not accept any liability in
failing to meet the original schedule.

Crew composition
Normal crew composition is assuming the roles of Captain and First officer fulfilled by respective
clients.

1.1 General All aircraft types

In the event that a training crew consists of two First officers, clients will be alternating seats during
each session. Extra emphasis will be put by the instructor on the roles of pilot flying and pilot non-
flying in their respective roles. Where required the instructor will provide commander directions
and decisions.

Customer standard operating procedures


The construction of the course allows implementation and the use of customer's SOPs throughout
the training as per the above, provided that CAE has access to the SOPs and documentation two
weeks before the start of training, in order to allow training of the CAE instructor force.
Two levels of integrating the customers SOP in training are identified:

Level 1. Basic integration of the customers' SOPs regarding callouts, for this level of
customization an electronic copy of the SOP is required (or the relevant section of the
manuals containing same)
Level 2. Basic integration of the customers' SOPs regarding callouts, for this level of
customization an electronic copy of the SOP is required (or the relevant section of the
manuals containing same)
• An electronic copy of the SOP (or the relevant manuals sections containing the
same)
• OMA
• OMB
• OMC (only for special airport training)

What is required from the customer


The customer shall provide the training provider with the required aircraft documentation two
weeks prior to start of the course, consisting of:
• OM/AOM/or FCOM
• QRH
• Minimum equipment list
• Performance Tables
• Checklists and take-off data cards
The client shall bring their proof of citizenship/licenses/certificates, consisting of:
• Identification card or passport
• Valid flight crew license
• Certificate of successful completion of MCC
In addition, each client shall carry a hardcopy QRH.

CAE expanded and standard type rating course with integrated MCC

MCC theoretical knowledge training


Theoretical training for the MCC module added to the type rating courses consists of 2 days.
The training emphasizes the development of non-technical skills applicable to working in a multi-
crew environment.

A320 Type Rating Course - Client Manual


Effective: 20DEC2017 ©CAE
Revision number: 08
1-10 1 General information training
All aircraft types 1.1 General

The training is focused on teaching the basics on the functioning of crew members as a team in a
multi-crew environment, not simply as a collection of technically competent individuals.
Furthermore, the course includes the opportunity to practice the skills that are necessary to be
effective team leaders and members. This is achieved by training exercises in which the clients
are crew members in the pilot flying (PF) and the pilot monitoring (PM) roles.

MCC simulator training


Simulator training for the MCC module added to the type rating courses consists of 3 sessions in
total preceding the type rating course syllabus.
Training shall be performed in a multi crew environment where the client shall be required to
operate as both pilot flying (PF) and pilot monitoring (PM) during all relevant sections of the
training.
As part of the required instruction MCC/CRM skills are integrated in the training and will be
discussed during the briefings and sessions, and will focus on:
• Crew co-operation
• Maintaining situational awareness by effective supervision
• Decision-making
• Treat and error management
Throughout the training the goal is to teach the crew to carry out tasks proficiently, safely and
efficiently in accordance with standard operating procedures. The objectives will be re-trained to
reach proficiency. The MCC module is considered a separate phase of the type rating training. A
client will only be permitted to migrate to the next phase if proficiency is demonstrated by a
progress or gate check for that phase or training.

13. Course delivery

General
Course delivery may vary between integrated, phased or distance learning solutions. It is
assumed that the course is structured in units in such a way that if all units are covered the course
is considered to be completed as all the learning objectives are completed regardless of the order
of appearance of the units (within pre-defined limitations).
All units, including all identified self-study preparation assignments, need to be covered as they
are considered an integral part of the course design. The instructor will continuously assess the
progress and adherence until the program unit completion standards are met, and will call for
additional training or time where deemed necessary.
If customized modules are incorporated into the CAE approved courses, this material will be
provided as a separate appendix.

Lesson pre-requisites
Certain minimum requirements must have been completed prior to the execution of each lesson.
This may include certain modules of CBT, self-study or instructor led tuition.
To ensure a good learning experience it is of great importance that the self-study, SOP practice,
CPT/FFS sessions are taught in the prescribed order.

A320 Type Rating Course - Client Manual


©CAE Effective: 20DEC2017
Revision number: 08
1 General information training 1-11
1.1 General All aircraft types

Time
Instructors are requested to use the estimated time requirements as guidance. They should not
cause a situation where the clients are pressured into moving on from “unfinished business”. If it
takes twice as long as planned to program the FMS, the instructor must try to manage this by
discussing client performance and time management at the end of the session (not during). At the
early stages of learning, the client will benefit from seeing things correctly done and complete the
first time.

Resources suitable for lessons


A minimum standard exists for each lesson, and nothing less than the minimum standard of
training aid and instructor is acceptable. A higher level of training aid can be used, but the syllabus
of the program must be adhered to. For example, in ground training, if CPT is taught in a simulator
instead of an other training device or classroom, the lesson should retain its focus on procedure
training and not be drawn into additional “simulator” related lessons, such as flying related
information.
All integration, review and briefing sessions are supported by a power point presentation showing
the learning objectives, goals and sequence of events. This supports the delivery of a
standardized delivery method for staining products, and for standardization of instructors.
Instructors are obliged to adhere to this structure at all times.

Theoretical knowledge instruction


The CAE theoretical knowledge instruction part is divided in units of theoretical lessons and of
practical training (integration).
The theoretical training is sub-divided into 3 parts:
• Self-study activities
- Computer based training (CBT)
- Preparation assignments
- Progress checks
• Instructor lectures (SUI)
- Introduction
- Intake test (distance learning)
- Reviews
- Performance/flight planning
- Mass and balance
• Final examination (exam)
Since CBT only (theoretical part) is not a course in itself, completion of the total curriculum is
achieved by the integration-training program.
This integration-training program consists of:
• CPT (CAE procedure training)
All training events are mixed throughout the course to vary the method of instruction. This
prevents the client from becoming exhausted after a prolonged period of CBT study only.
The course is designed to create a program where varying theoretical and practical segments
make full use of the available course time, and increases learning effectiveness.

A320 Type Rating Course - Client Manual

Revision number: 08
1-12 1 General information training
All aircraft types 1.1 General

NOTE The distance learning option has a longer CBT time to prevent the client from
becoming exhausted.
This way the theoretical technical systems training and the procedural training are alternated and
combined to be consolidated in combination during the CPT training.
The units design allows for flexibility in delivery of the course within set rules of the order of
delivery. When all units are completed the entire syllabus is fulfilled.
The course has two recommended setups:
• Integrated training
• Distance learning training
NOTE The recommended setup may be altered for resources availability or scheduling
reasons.

Integrated training
Integrated training is performed at the training center and all training events are mixed throughout
the course to vary the method of instruction and to provide efficient learning.
For a client conducting his/her first type rating course, the integrated training variant is the only
available option.

Distance learning training


The client may take part of the theoretical knowledge training as a distance learning option, using
a learning management system (LMS).
The clients will do part of their training before going in person to a CAE training center. On arrival,
they are given an “intake test” to check their level of knowledge, and will finalize their theoretical
knowledge part with the aid of an instructor.
The distance learning variant of the type rating course is recommended to clients already holding
a type rating in their license.

14. FSTD training phase


The FSTD training program is divided into several phases. Each of them targets different
objectives in order to meet defined proficiency criteria.
It is compulsory for the client to meet the proficiency criteria of a flight training phase before
accessing the next one.
The following table provides an overview of the different phases:

P1 Phase 1 Normal operations


P2 Phase 2 Abnormal emergency operations
P3 Phase 3 LOFT
P4 Phase 4 Testing and optional modules

2 Ground training

2.1 Information ground training

1. Introduction to theoretical knowledge training


The ground school phase of your training at CAE incorporates several different modules or units
and enables you to build a solid base for all the information you will be receiving.
Training given aims to meet the course training standards (CTS):
CBT, preparation assignments, CMU, classroom instruction and CPT training sessions will help
you develop a good understanding of what you will need to know as a pilot prior to starting the
flight simulator phase of the course.
A significant part of your training is self-study activities. It is of utmost importance that you follow
the recommended order of study and prepare for the instructor led activities. In order to be as
prepared as possible study outside working hours is strongly recommended.

CBT (computer based training)


CBT is divided into chapters, deals with system knowledge and is your primary source of technical
information. Each system is presented one at a time and is designed to give you a good
knowledge of the different systems of your aircraft.
At the end of each system module, a short test is presented on the computer to assess your
progress and understanding of the presentation you have just watched.

Preparation assignments
In order to prepare for certain activities as well as learning parts not covered in CBT, preparation
assignments are utilized and scheduled throughout the training. Several of the preparation
assignments are prerequisites for later activities and must be complied with in order to have a
successful training.
Included in the preparation assignment you will also do progress checks.

CMU (cockpit mock-up)


CAE is equipped with CMUs for each aircraft we utilize for training. CMU sessions are
incorporated into the ground school phase of your training to help you learn the location of each
switch within each system panel and become familiar with their function. CMU sessions are also
utilized to practice the correct preparation of a cockpit prior to, during or after a flight, according to
a standard operating procedure (SOP) flow and the reading of various checklists.
Using the CMU and following the scheduled CMU study activities will prepare you for the CPT
sessions. These sessions are prerequisites for the CPT.
For distance learning courses, cockpit familiarization will be performed using the pilot cockpit
poster.

Revision number: 08
2-4 2 Ground training
A320 2.1 Information ground training

CPT (CAE procedure training) sessions


The CPT sessions embodies all the tools learned by you thus far; you are now flying or explained
manoeuvres and profiles, you handle system switches under normal, abnormal and emergency
situations, you use FMS, SOP and CRM, apply technical knowledge and bring these skills into an
almost life-like environment.
Some CPT sessions are preceded by a briefing. The purpose of this briefing is to review your
progress, answer any course-related question you might have and covers step-by-step the
session that is about to take place. The instructor will explain in detail what is expected of you, will
make sure you are absorbing the material properly and are able to take on the next challenges.
Once the session is over, a debriefing takes place to review each pilot's performance, and to
discuss and reinforce areas needing attention and prepare you for the next scheduled session.

Classroom instruction
In the classroom you will be given the “final touch”. Here the instructor will assess and assist, so
be prepared and ask questions about topics of difficulty.
You will receive classroom instruction for topics not covered by CBT, aircraft specific performance,
mass and balance and SOP.

2. Course supporting documents


The customer is to support the client with aircraft manuals.
The following manuals are to be used during the course:
• FCOM general information, aircraft systems, procedures, limitations, OEB, flight crew
bulletins and performance
- The Flight crew operating manual (FCOM) is the support documentation for flight crews. It
provides them with the necessary information about the operational, technical, procedural,
and performance characteristics of the single aisle aircraft family, to ensure safe and
efficient operations of the aircraft during normal and abnormal/emergency situations, that
may occur on ground, or in flight.
• FCTM Flight crew training manual
- The Flight crew training manual (FCTM) is published as a supplement to the Flight crew
operating manual (FCOM) and is designed to provide pilots with practical information on
how to operate the A320. It should be read in conjunction with the FCOM. In the case of
any conflict, the FCOM is the overriding reference.
• QRH
- The QRH contains some specific procedures which are not displayed on the ECAM. As a
general rule, the procedures displayed on the ECAM are not provided in the QRH (refer to
FCOM PRO/ABN). In addition it contains: normal procedures, performance, operational
data and operations engineering bulletins.
• Minimum equipment list (MEL)
- This is a list of which part/system you can have a failure in and still be able to dispatch.
• SOP (standard operating procedures) (optional)
- The SOPs, whether from your company or those suggested by the aircraft manufacturer
are designed to follow a certain logical order of doing things in the aircraft in order to comply
with company philosophy.
• CAE client training manual
- This training manual will explain the organizational and general objectives of the type rating
course; this includes order of study, preparation assignments and guidance to prepare you
for the instructor led exercises and sessions.
- This guide will be a general guide for you during your stay at a CAE training center.
NOTE Aircraft manuals are to be supplied to the client by the customer.
You will also receive additional documentation such as:
• Welcome to CAE leaflet
• Flight deck panel posters
• Handouts

3. How to approach this course?

General
Generally speaking, too much information received in one time can be overwhelming.
“How do I organize myself in order to get the maximum out of this course...?” are questions you
will most likely ask yourself. It is normal to not know where to begin, how to structure your study
time efficiently and what books, manuals or document to read in conjunction with the different
modules of the course. Good study habits are therefore essential not only in making maximum
use of your time but also to absorb the maximum amount of material necessary to succeed in your
type rating and meeting the course training standards.

CBT (computer based training)


Looking at a computer screen for hours can rightfully be tiresome. The CBT course contains only
a minimum amount of information and is designed to give the pilot a surface view of the systems;
do not hesitate to push the “PAUSE” button at any time and stop the CBT presentation; compare
the information you have just received with the info on that subject contained in the FCOM. Look
at the different images and diagrams in FCOM, form a mental picture of the system and try to
understand the logic behind its operation. Take notes as you go along and/or try to memorize
limitations associated with temperatures, quantities, pressure limits and how they affect your
operation... in other words, be “hungry” for knowledge. Doing so will enable you to stay one step
ahead of the learning experience.
Be aware that looking at a computer screen may strain your eyes so have in mind some simple
measures to reduce visual fatigue. Every 20 or 30 minutes look to a distant landscape, skyline or
object to reduce eye stress.

CMU (cockpit mock-up)


CMU exercises are scheduled throughout the course in order for you to learn cockpit layout and
procedures, actions flows and to practice checklists.
You are strongly encouraged to schedule additional time at the mock-up to rehearse procedures,
and SOPs; this need to be done in your own time to reinforce your knowledge. Be sure to include
your crew mate in this study time; he/she will confirm that your recollection of the procedures is
accurate. After a while, change duties with your crew mate so that you are just as confident as PF
and PM. Have all pertinent manuals by your side to refer to if needed.

CPT (CAE procedure training) and FFS (full flight simulator) sessions
It is obvious that the time you schedule at the CMU will not only be helpful during the early phases
of the course but also during the CPT and FFS sessions and generally speaking, to prepare you
for the upcoming session.
Just being in a flight simulator will affect your ability to remember the procedures you repeated
flawlessly in the mock-up or during the pre-sim briefing session. It is therefore advisable to keep
on rehearsing till all is almost “second nature”.
Remember: You are not alone in this course. Your crew-mates, instructors and everyone at CAE
is here to help you get through this course and bring you to a very competent level.

3.1 Information simulator training

FFS (full flight simulator) sessions


During the FFS sessions you will finally experience the sensations associated with being in a real
aircraft. During these sessions, you are exposed to different scenarios involving an array of aircraft
system malfunctions. You are challenged by simple or complex malfunctions and will learn how to
solve them with the aid of your cockpit crew member, manuals available in the cockpit and through
communications with air traffic control. These abnormal and emergency situations are repeated
several times throughout the entire course and will enable you to become comfortable with their
execution.
Each FFS session is divided equally into two parts in order to expose you and your crew member
to tasks associated with the duties of a PF and a PM. While the PF is responsible for the safe
operation of the aircraft and the making of decisions to maintain a safe flight environment, the PM
is tasked with the monitoring of the actions of his/her cockpit crew member, the communication
with the different Air traffic control agencies, the performance procedures described in the
checklists and the use of CRM.
Each FFS session is preceded by a briefing. The purpose of this briefing is to review your
progress, to answer any course-related question you might have and to step by step cover the
session that is about to take place, while making certain you fully understand the challenge at
hand.
After each simulator session, a debriefing takes place to review each pilot's performance, and to
discuss and reinforce areas needing attention and to prepare the pilots for the next scheduled
session.
Just like in the CPT sessions, you will be involving all the tools you have learned up to this point
while being exposed to new challenges.

LST (license skill test)


Once the series of FFS sessions has been completed, you will be signed off by your instructor.
This will authorize you to undergo the skill test that rounds off the type rating
Rest assured that you will have been trained to proficiency by our training staff. We will not
schedule your exam unless we are certain that you have reached a comfortable level of
proficiency which will allow you to easily pass the skill test.
CAE wishes you once again a successful course and trust you will enjoy our training facility and
all that it has to offer.

3.2 Lesson description

1.1 Lesson objective


• The lesson objectives contains the most essential parts of the session.

1.2 Training topics


a. Briefing
- The briefing sections contain information to the clients of which areas will be discussed
during the briefing. Clients should come prepared to the briefing and be prepared to answer
questions in the described areas.
The sections provides more general subject than described in the study reference.
b. Study reference
- The study reference section provides references in the related manuals specific to each
individual manoeuvre and procedure. Clients should use these references to find
information in the manuals in preparation for the simulator session.
- References to FCOM normal procedures are only given during phase 1 or when a new
procedure is introduced. Supplementary procedures are referred to whenever they are
used.
- Not all parts of a sim session have reference items, this can be because the item has been
covered extensively previously in the training or that no specific reference exists.
- References are given to a specific chapter and/or named segment of a procedure, checklist
or manoeuvre. Clients are expected to actively look for information that prepares them for
the session and the references are guidelines and a good starting point but not a complete
base for preparation. Reading the references provides a minimum level of preparation for
the session.
- Only references to aircraft manufacturer's documents are provided. If the course is
conducted using airline specific procedures no references to those are provided and
Clients must find the information on their own. The references will still provide good reading
but must be supplemented with the airline specific procedures and policies.

1.3 Proficiency criteria


The proficiency criteria specify to what level of performance a client is expected to perform to in
order to progress further in the course. Normally the reference throughout the simulator phase is
to the course training standards which are described separately. Sometimes there will be plane
text information to highlight specific performance criteria such as on phase checks.

1.4 Flight data


The flight data chapter contains basic weather, FMS input and performance calculations specific
to each simulator session. This enables the clients to perform the pre-flight procedure with little
input from the instructor.
Use of the flight data segment may vary depending on the customer/airlines use of performance
tool. Clarify with instructor during briefing which data will be used.

3.2.9 Lesson description S8


1. FFS 8 session: LOFT
Line-oriented flight training (LOFT) refers to the use of a training simulator and a well-structured
scenario to simulate the total line operational environment. A strong illusion of reality in the
simulated trips is of vital importance to the effectiveness of LOFT.
LOFT involves a complete crew with each member operating as an individual and as a member
of a team, just as he or she does during line operations.
The LOFT scenario is constructed to provide the highest degree of realism technically,
economically, and operationally feasible. The more realistic the situation, the faster crews will start
thinking and reacting as if they were conducting an actual line trip.

1.1 Lesson objective


In addition to the knowledge and skills you acquired during the previous FFS session, upon
completion of this lesson, you will be able to:
• Perform a standard flight from gate to gate using correct SOP
• Handle malfunctions and/or emergencies during a LOFT scenario
• Demonstrate the required handling skill and procedural/technical knowledge to pass an
examination flight
The Flight Data Collection will provide you with required information to conduct this session.

1.2 Training topics


a. Briefing
- Normal SOP review
- ENG Start Fault
- MMEL
- Malfunction management (use operators specific SOP if applicable and Airbus Golden
rules)

1.3 Conducting the session


The LOFT session should not be interrupted except in extreme or unusual circumstances.
Repositioning the simulator and repeating problems is inconsistent with the principles of LOFT.
Part of the benefit of LOFT is derived from an individual or crew being able to quickly appreciate
the positive or negative results of their operational decisions.
Mistakes may well be made, just as they sometimes occur on the line, but the crew must carry on.
To some extent, LOFT is an exercise in "mistake management".
There is frequently no "book solution" to a LOFT exercise. There may in fact be no right solution.
The instructor's role is to manage the training situation, not to teach right solutions nor to test the
clients.
During the LOFT, instructors should take detailed notes of observations to help guide the
debriefing.
