8. Advanced gas turbine aeroplane flying training
The student pilot should develop a flight path management competency, including energy management,
as pilot flying (PF), and associated active monitoring skills as pilot monitoring (PM). Aeroplane
procedures used during this training should develop the student pilot’s understanding of the aeroplane
flight envelope and inertia, as well as of the relationship between thrust and attitude. This phase should
include an introduction to prevention and recovery of upsets, which builds confidence, skill, and
resilience.

9. Advanced airline operations scenario training
The student pilot should be trained to apply the core competencies to conduct a safe and efficient
operation in realistic airline operations scenarios. The airline-representative scenarios should include
normal and non-normal situations. Operations should be run in real time according to a typical
schedule. The scenarios should be constructed in an airline context in order to emphasise the following:
(i) Threat-and-error management (TEM);
(ii) Crew resource management (CRM);
(iii) Flight path management, including energy management; and
(iv) Interaction with internal and external stakeholders in the resolution of scenarios.
