Airplane Upset Prevention and Recovery Training (AUPRT)

This course covers airplane undesirable aircraft states (UAS) and Loss of Control Inflight (LOCI) / aircraft upset focussing on, aerodynamics and flight dynamics, recognition, prevention and recovery techniques. The course includes relevant high-altitude aerodynamics, including aircraft performance factors. Factors leading to UAS, and Upset including environmental, aircraft-related and pilot-induced factors are covered. Recommendations for recovery from UAS / LOCI are also discussed. The course is available in versions for Boeing and Airbus aircraft., Also available is an optional supplementary lesson covering propeller driven aircraft, focussed on lower altitude operations with emphasis on operation in that environment regarding wing stalls and tailplane stalls.
