Learn more about Advanced Aircrew Academy's Training Support Package offered through USAIG's Performance Vector Safety Initiative. USAIG-insured operators of turbine-powered aircraft, regardless of fleet size, qualify for Performance Vector. $2,500 in your pocket! For policyholders who select this option, Advanced Aircrew Academy (AAA) will conduct an in-depth review of current training practices, integrating the specifics of your operation, applicable regulatory and certification requirements, safety data you have collected, and industry best practices. AAA will deliver a report from this process to inform and guide the training plan's strategic refinement. You can then select four eLearning modules that can be delivered all at once or as four quarterly training focus areas. For example: an operator might select a winter operations review for the fall, runway excursion prevention training during icy runway winter months, warm weather hazards in the spring, and security training in the summer. Additional training modules or capacity beyond what is provided with the package can be obtained at discounted USAIG member rates. email info@aircrewacademy.com #aviation #airplane #aircraft #pilot #pilottraining #fly #learn #information #businessaviation #elearning #training

Jurisdictional mandate in incident investigations: The legal authority of the National Police Service in handling aircraft accidents under Kenyan law. An entity's responsibilities can be inferred from its mandate. The borders between these roles can become unclear, particularly when dealing with complex issues like determining who is accountable for investigating aeroplane accidents. This essay will analyse the National Police Service's duty according to Kenyan law and its jurisdiction to investigate accidents, followed by a discussion on other relevant authorities. The Kenyan Constitution, specifically Chapter Eleven, assigns the responsibility of upholding law, order, and peace in the country to the National Police Service ("The Constitution of Kenya," 2010). The responsibilities consist of preventing, detecting, and investigating crime, enforcing the law, and safeguarding life and property as outlined in the National Police Service Act of 2011. Nowhere does it specifically mention that the NPS is mandated to investigate aeroplane accidents. The Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA) is specifically responsible for conducting accident investigations involving aeroplanes. The KCAA is tasked with air accident and incident investigation in Kenya according to Section 10(2) of the Civil Aviation Act (2013). Therefore, the responsibility for investigating commercial aviation accidents would be under the authority of the KCAA, not the NPS. Emphasising the international standards set by the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) for aviation safety and accident investigation is crucial. According to Annexe 13 by ICAO, the primary goal of an accident enquiry is to prevent future accidents, rather than assigning blame or liability. The KCAA is responsible for regulating aviation in Kenya and ensuring that standards are upheld. The Air Accident Investigation Department (AAID), a branch of the Ministry of Transport, Infrastructure, Housing, and Urban Development, plays a key role in this context. The AAID has clear authority over air accident investigations, collaborating with the KCAA to manage all procedural and technical components of these investigations. The NPS is the main law enforcement agency in Kenya, however its role in aircraft accident investigation is limited and supportive, with the KCAA and AAID having the primary responsibilities. Ultimately, under Kenyan law, the responsibility for accident investigations involving aircraft rests with the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA) and the Air Accident Investigation Department (AAID) as a specialised body. The NPS offers essential assistance in maintaining the integrity of the wreckage and organising security at the accident sites. Separation of roles enables a more focused and efficient response to complex incidents by preventing overlap and ambiguity. References.

New pilots need training. Pilots 👨✈️ need essential instruction so they can learn how to properly fly their aircraft 🛫 Type Rating Instructors 👩✈️ are there to teach good habits and important skills. This is the way 😁 😎 !!. Once the pilot is ready (has taken the creed 😊 ) they must be tested by a Type Rating Examiner and go through the trials. Like a Mandalorian, a pilot must then embody what it means to be a aviator, including upholding any code of traditions and ideals 😉 . Do you have any interesting stories from your training or the training of others? For the non-pilots, did you know that pilots must be type-rated on each aircraft they fly? #immigration #globalmobility #pilots #aviation #training #teaching #greencard

With more #airlines and #training providers including Boeing CAE FlightSafety International adopting #competencybasedtrainingingandassessment #CBTA, it is unsurprising it is making its way into #businessaviation. Good article by Aviation International News in the wake of accident numbers increasing in the sector. I also think we should be training future #airlinepilots differently. I'm familiar with Skyborne Training Academy and other similar training programs like Republic Airways Leadership In Flight Training Academy (LIFT) that focus specifically on training each pilot to #airline standards. For those aspiring to working in #commercialaviation or #businessaviation, they should be trained from the outset as #professionalpilots and, instead of instructing or building time drilling holes in the sky, given duties to enhance their expertise, professionalism and discipline, safety experts say is so essential to #aviationsafety. We need airline experience not just building-hours experience. National Flight Training Alliance - NFTA https://lnkd.in/e-pWd-xT

Recently, a harrowing incident highlighted the incredible importance of flying staff. When a burning aircraft was evacuated with 367 people rescued alive, it was more than just luck. This awe-inspiring feat was possible because of the highly trained and dedicated cockpit and cabin crew who were at the helm. 🔥 In moments of crisis, it's the education, training, and swift actions of these professionals that can make the difference between tragedy and survival. Their role extends far beyond the routine services we see during our travels. They are trained to handle emergencies, provide first aid, manage safety protocols, and, most importantly, ensure the security of everyone on board. 👩✈️👨✈️ As passengers, our safety is in their capable hands. The next time you're flying, remember that the crew members aren't just there to serve drinks or meals. They're there to safeguard your journey, equipped with skills that could save lives in an emergency. ✈️ So, let's take a moment to appreciate these unsung heroes of the skies. Listen to their instructions, follow safety protocols, and acknowledge the vital role they play in making air travel one of the safest modes of transportation. #Aviation #AirlineCrew #SafetyFirst #AviationHeroes #TravelSafe

Lots has already been said about the miraculous escape of all of the passengers. Two safety points I have not seen discussed: 1) Make sure your shoes are on for takeoff and landing. If you need to get out of a burning airplane quickly you don’t want to be doing that in bare feet. 2) Make sure the window shades are open for takeoff and landing. You and the flight attendants need to be able to see outside to see where the danger is. Unbelievably U.S. regulators do not mandate this while most foreign regulators do. If you are sitting in a window seat, open the window shade.

Sobering reminder to pay attention while flying, don't become complacent, even as a passenger, and always listen to the flight crew. They're there for a reason and it isn't just to hand out hot towels and drinks. Don't make the potential last few seconds of your life (and that of others) dependent on taking things that can easily be replaced. #AllBagsLeftBehind #aviationsafety #emergencymanagement #travel #passengerexperience #safetyfirst
