In this video, Brian Lester from Astro Aviation discusses one of the common misconceptions about Upset Prevention and Recovery Training. (Is simulator training enough to prepare for an upset?)
Many pilots believe that they receive adequate upset prevention training in the simulator, but anyone who has been in a real upset knows that there are some things the sim just can’t prepare you for.
Complete disorientation and unfamiliarity with the behavior of an upset aircraft explain why Loss of Control in Flight (LoC-I) remains the number one cause of death across all sectors of aviation, even when every other cause is on the decline.
UPRT is considered by many to be the best way to combat the number one killer in aviation.
This is the first episode in a series investigating the benefits of Upset Prevention and Recovery Training. Join Brian as he explores this topic in more depth.
