- A good way to start is by reviewing what is an approved training device, what is an FAA-approved simulator, and what is a PCATD. At the bottom end of the spectrum is the old ground training devices many of which are now designated as Level One Flight Training Devices (FTD). There are seven levels of FTD's. At the other end of the spectrum are the very complex, state of the art, FAA-approved flight simulators.

North Carolina community collegeâs aviation program takes off “Established in 1970, the program is the only community college aviation program in eastern North Carolina,” said Jennings, who noted it is one of just three similar programs in the state. According to Jennings, the program really took off last year when it acquired its first full-motion simulator, an FAA-approved Redbird FMX full-motion flight simulator.

- The Instrument Landing System (ILS) is an internationally normalized system for navigation of aircrafts upon the final approach for landing.It was accepted as a standard system by the ICAO, (International Civil Aviation Organization) in 1947.he glide slope, or angle of the descent plane provides the vertical guidance for the pilot during an approach. It’s created by a ground UHF transmitter containing an antenna system operating in the range of 329,30÷335.00 MHz, with a channel separation of 50 kHz.

- Class E Airspace rules provide separation when it emerges from the cloud at area 1. As the aircraft nears the vicinity of the airport, the floor of Class E Airspace is lowered so that separation protection is maintained when it flies out of the cloud at area 2. If the instrument approach being flown is a non-precision approach, this is the approximate minimum descent altitude.

Contents The LOSA method is seen as closely linked with Crew Resource Management (CRM) training. A particular strength of LOSA is perceived as the way it identifies examples of superior pilot performance that can be provide models for use in training.ole of ICAO. ICAO has promoted the potential of LOSA and acted as an enabling partner in the LOSA programme. ICAO has developed a manual (Doc 9803) that provides an introduction to the concept, methodology and tools of LOSA and to the potential remedial actions which can be undertaken using the data collected.
