New flying training resources available from CASA

New training resources for Australia's flying training industry have been released by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority.

The resources include updated versions of the popular Flight Instruction Manual and special guides for the assessment of flight instructors.

Ian Ogilvie, a Civil Aviation Safety Authority flying training specialist, said wide consultation with flying instructors across Australia had resulted in a range of practical and important improvements to the Flight Instruction Manual.

The manual is an easy to read, complete guide to elementary flying training for all Australian flying instructors.

Flight Test Guides are also available for the initial issue of both flight instructor (aeroplane) grade 2 and 3 ratings.

Industry delegates who are assessing people to become grade 2 or 3 flying instructors must now follow the procedures in the guides. This will ensure a consistent and standard approach to the assessment of applicants.

The guides are also vital for people training to become flying instructors.

The Flight Instruction Manual and Flight Test Guides are available for download from www.casa.gov.au/aoc/training/index.htm 

The Flight Test Guides are also available in hard copy from Civil Aviation Safety Authority field safety advisors or the Aviation Safety Promotion branch. Email fcl@casa.gov.au
