    (d) This training should focus on the turning characteristics of
some aircraft with partial in-flight spoilers (speedbrakes) deployed,
rather than on the remote mechanical failure leading to loss of the
spoilers. The pilot should experience an increase in spoiler deployment
on the down wing and a decrease in spoiler deployment on the up wing,
which causes a markedly different roll characteristic than with full or
no spoiler deployment.

6.8 Task: Stability Augmentation System Inoperative
    (a) Condition(s). All.
    (b) Awareness criteria.
    (1) Awareness of the mechanical and aerodynamic circumstances
involved in the phenomenon known as ``Dutch Roll.''
    (2) This maneuver is only applicable to swept wing, turbojet
powered, transport category aircraft.
    (c) Action criteria.
    (1) If Dutch roll is encountered and the yaw dampers are off,
rather than inoperative, the pilot must turn on the damper(s). The
pilot must be able to stop the rolling tendency without prolonging the
Dutch roll or aggravating the yaw.
    (2) If Dutch roll is encountered and the yaw dampers are
inoperative, the pilot must:
    (i) ``Freeze'' the rudder pedals in position and give one firm
correction on the aileron control against the upcoming wing.
    (ii) Move the aileron correction immediately to the neutral
position.
    (3) If Dutch roll is still present, maintain the rudder pedals in a
constant position and again apply one firm aileron control input
against the upcoming wing and immediately move the aileron control to
the neutral position. Apply this correction in this manner until the
Dutch roll is corrected.

END QPS REQUIREMENT

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

BEGIN INFORMATION

    (d) This maneuver is designed to acquaint the pilot with the
adverse characteristics of a swept wing turbojet transport category
aircraft at relatively high altitudes and airspeeds; e.g., at or above
FL250 at an appropriate cruise airspeed for the altitude selected.
Typically, a Dutch roll would only be experienced when (all) the yaw
damper(s) is (are) inoperative or turned off, and could be initiated as
a result of an uncoordinated roll or an adverse yaw input. Recovery
from a Dutch roll may be accomplished by turning on the yaw damper or
executing the aileron technique described here. The aileron technique
involves more advanced skills and additional practice. This method
ensures that the proper control inputs will be applied to stop the
rolling motion. In addition to practicing the task at relatively high
altitudes, the task should be demonstrated at an intermediately low
altitude and airspeed; e.g., between 10,000 and 15,000 feet at an
airspeed of 250 to 300 knots.

profile, conducted as close to maximum gross landing weight as
possible. The descent must be entered at sufficient altitude to
stabilize airspeed and vertical speed. The maneuver must be performed
at normal approach altitudes.
    (2) The pilot must use the following configuration: flaps or slats
(as

appropriate) set to landing configuration; landing gear down; throttles
at idle; establish and maintain threshold airspeed. When configuration
is established, the pilot must trim and maintain proper airspeed with
power at idle thrust and a high rate of descent.
    (3) The pilot must perform the following two separate recoveries
from a high rate of descent:
    (i) After descent rate is established, the instructor will announce
the designated altitude at which level off is to occur. When the
designated altitude is reached, the pilot must initiate recovery to
level flight in the landing configuration using maximum permissible
thrust while maintaining threshold airspeed. At the completion of the
maneuver, the instructor must discuss with the pilot the loss of
altitude during recovery.
    (ii) The second recovery must be initiated in the same manner as in
paragraph (a) of this section to the point of reaching the designated
altitude. When the designated altitude is reached, the pilot must
initiate recovery to level flight in the landing configuration and

    (3) Effective training scenarios for firefighting should include
realistic drills with emphasis on combating hidden fires. To provide
realistic training, drills should simulate locations of hidden fires
such as behind sidewall panels, in overhead areas and panels, or in air
conditioning vents. The intent of the training is to provide

crewmembers with the typical obstacles that they would encounter
onboard the aircraft, but it is not intended to have each student tear
apart sidewall panels. A training program should incorporate a method
to assess and combat a hidden fire, such as locating the exact source
of the fire before applying an extinguishing agent. Depending on the
sophistication of the training device, the flight crewmember could use
a manual release tool that is designed to open the enclosed area to
gain access to a fire that is suspected in that region.

    4. CRM refers to the effective use of all available resources,
including, human resources, hardware, and information. Human resources
include all other groups routinely working with the flight crewmembers
who are involved in decisions that are required to operate a flight
safely. CRM is not a single task. CRM is a set of competencies that
must be evident in all tasks in this QPS as applied to the individual
and the multi-crew operation.
    5. CRM deficiencies usually contribute to the unsatisfactory
technical performance of a task. Therefore, the CRM competencies are
valuable for debriefing. For debriefing purposes, an amplified list of
these competencies, expressed as behavioral markers, is in AC 120-51,
as amended.
    6. Certificate holders should conduct flight crewmember and flight
attendant CRM scenarios together. When this is not possible,
certificate holders should include information in flight crewmember
training that addresses the roles of flight attendants during emergency
situations.

K. What is the continuous analysis process and how is it incorporated
in this QPS? (see Sec.  121.1355)

    1. The continuous analysis process is a certificate holder internal
evaluation and improvement process. The continuous analysis process
will enable the certificate holder to maintain and refine the training
process by continually monitoring the effectiveness and efficiency of
the process. Various assessment tools (testing, checking, inspection,
documenting, evaluation, and analysis) will be used to validate the
effectiveness of a training program or the need to change a training
program.

END INFORMATION

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

BEGIN QPS REQUIREMENT

    2. A continuous analysis process is incorporated in this QPS
through integration with the qualification and training program. The
certificate holder is responsible for designating responsibility for
the process. The certificate holder must ensure appropriate and
adequate assessment tools (testing, checking, critique, inspection,
observation, documenting, evaluation, and analysis) are utilized to
enable the certificate holder to validate the effectiveness of the
qualification and training program, or the need to change that program.
The certificate holder must describe the attributes of the continuous
analysis process in the certificate holder's FAA approved training
program.

A. Programmed Hour Requirements: Flight Engineers (see Sec. Sec.
121.1205; 121.1331; 121.1333; 121.1335)

    1. Baseline and Minimum Programmed Hours. Table 1A sets out the
baseline and minimum programmed hours for each category of training by
segment (academic and job performance). The FAA may approve a reduction
in baseline programmed hours if the certificate holder demonstrates
that the reduction is warranted. The FAA will not approve a reduction
in the programmed hours below the minimum programmed hours.
    2. Required hours for requalification training. The hours
established for

requalification training (Sec.  121.1239) are for individuals in
specific circumstances. Therefore, there are no programmed hours in
Table 1A for requalification training.
    3. Required hours for differences and special training. The hours
established for differences and special training are in addition to the
previously approved programmed hours for the approved training program.
For differences training (Sec.  121.1391), the hours remain in the
differences training category. For special training (Sec.
121.1337(c)), the certificate holder integrates the training into the
existing categories in Table 1A. Therefore, there are no programmed
hours in Table 1A for differences and special training.

B. Recurrent Training (see Sec.  121.1367)

    Recurrent training modules are required each 9 months. Recurrent
training modules also will contain academic subjects, job performance
tasks and environments, and emergency drills and demonstrations that
may be required once each 9 months, once each 18 months, or once each
36 months. The certificate holder may distribute these recurrent
training requirements in a manner that best suits its training program
structure while ensuring that the required items are included at the
appropriate intervals.

    Example 1: A 9-month recurrent period includes all of the
academic subjects and job performance tasks and environments that
are required at each 9-month interval. The certificate holder may
decide to include one-half of those academic subjects and job
performance tasks and environments that are required every 18 months
during this particular 9-month training period, and leave the
balance to be completed at the next 9-month period. Also, the
certificate holder may decide to include one-fourth of the emergency
equipment drills and demonstrations during this 9-month interval,
and leave the other three-fourths of those drills and demonstrations
to be completed during subsequent 9-month periods.
    Example 2: A 9-month recurrent period includes all of the
academic subjects and job performance tasks and environments that
are required every 9-months. During the next 9-month recurrent
period, the certificate holder must include all of the academic
subjects and job performance tasks and environments that are
required every 9-months, as well as all of the academic subjects and
job performance tasks and environments that are required every 18
months. At the following 9-month interval (27-month point), the
certificate holder must include all those academic subjects and job
performance tasks and environments that are required every 9-months.
Then, at the 36-month point, the certificate holder must include all
of the academic subjects and job performance tasks and environments
that are required every 9-months, all of the academic subjects and
job performance tasks and environments that are required every 18
months, and all of the academic subjects, job performance tasks, and
all the emergency equipment drills and demonstrations that are
required every 36 months.

    1. Attachment 2 contains the academic training segment
requirements.
    2. When differences and special training are required for academic
training, they will be additional training modules or new subjects. For
more information about differences and special training categories see
attachment 1 of this appendix.
    3. How to read Table 2A.
    (a) Table 2A contains the required academic training subjects by
category of training. In the table, an ``X'' indicates that the subject
must be included in the category of training. A ``9'' indicates that
the subject must be

trained every 9 months. An ``18'' indicates that the subject must be
trained every 18 months.
    (b) Table 2A item (c)(3) addresses the training subject
``Coordination, communication, and methodology for the performance of
each normal, abnormal, and emergency procedure contained in the FCOM.''
For core conversion, phase I requalification, and recurrent training
all abnormal and emergency procedures are required. However, only
selected normal procedures are required. The selection of normal
procedures should be based on procedural changes, feedback from
observed procedural irregularities, and system safety initiatives.
