Summary |
---|
The course is based on module 032 - Performance. The content is focused on the issue of setting requirements for aircraft performance in individual phases of flight. Comprehensive knowledge of all factors affecting the performance of the aircraft during the various phases of flight, including regulatory requirements, is one of the main requirements for the safety of flight.
The student will gain competence in the field of aircraft performance requirements, calculations of basic performance parameters of category B aircraft according to EASA certification specification CS-23 and class A aircraft according to specification CS-25, which will allow him to pass ATPL exams at the Prague Civil Aviation Authority. |
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit |
---|
The goal is for students to achieve the necessary competencies to focus on the issue of comprehensive planning and conduct of flights in commercial aviation. Completion of this course is part of the theoretical training to acquire pilot licence. |
