Helps Teach Pilots How To Recognize Loss Of Control
Situations
Aviation Performance Solutions has
launched an online upset recovery training program for private
pilots of all skill levels. The training program was previously
only available to pilots participating in-person at the APS
Emergency Maneuver Training campus at the Phoenix-Mesa Gateway
Airport in Arizona.
More than a decade in development, the upset recovery training
provides comprehensive online video ground training to private
pilots of all skill levels, including the life-saving knowledge to
recognize and avoid numerous lethal loss of control in-flight
situations.
APS says the benefits for private pilots taking it's upset
recovery training online video courses include:
- Appropriate for private pilots of all skill levels flying small
general aviation airplanes – up to private business
jets.
- Affordable monthly online training. The course introduction and
first 2.5 hour video training module are only $1 for 30 days.
- Quickly understand why regulatory-compliant flight training has
not provided acceptable levels of upset recovery skill
development.
- Academically master the steps crucial to resolving any
recoverable stall or unusual attitude.
- Learn why yaw and, more specifically, mishandling rudder can be
deadly.
- Comprehensive instruction so a private pilot can understand and
identify the most critical single flight control action they can
take to be spin-proof.
“We witness daily the disbelief private pilots of all
skill levels experience when they realize first-hand that they were
not previously trained properly to handle an airplane upset,”
said Paul BJ Ransbury, President of APS Emergency Maneuver
Training. “(P)ilots graduating from our courses frequently
testify that they never would have survived an actual airplane
upset without taking our upset recovery training program.
APS’ practical upset recovery video training is a must for
every private pilot – it provides crucial survival
skills.”
APS’ online upset recovery training program is now
available in subscription format as an online video training series
and new training modules are available every month for $69 per
module. On completion, continued access to the full course is
available at a reduced monthly rate.
