Long Briefing

The long-briefing includes familiarization with training aircraft, presentation of local procedures, and review of the standard upset recovery templates.

Specific safety briefing is also included!

Air Exercises

Students are provided access to the A-UPRT CBT to review all the necessary topics.

AE1 Nose High Recovery
AE2 Nose LOW Recovery
AE3 Recovery from spiral dive
AE4 Stall Event Recovery
AE5 Recovery from spin

During the air exercises, students often experience never seen before the effects of human factors. Airwin Instructors are highly trained to demonstrate various methods to cope with these factors.

Endorsment and Certification

Following the successful completion of the theoretical and practical parts the endorsement is entered into the logbook.

Airwin also issues official course completion certificate signed and stamped by the training department.
