You know what’s coming... Or do you?
Thousands of hours can build tremendous experience. But what happens if the aircraft does something those hours didn't prepare you for?
A look at startle, surprise, and UPRT reveals what it takes to build expertise beyond the expected.

The problem with uneventful flights?
1,000 hours of uneventful flying makes you a more experienced pilot. But if they were truly uneventful, you likely haven't had the opportunity to sharpen some critical, non-normal skill sets.
Many unexpected hazards can start a chain of events that leads to an aircraft upset. Yet recognizing, preventing, and recovering from those conditions is rarely exercised in normal operations. Recurrent Upset Prevention & Recovery Training (UPRT) helps close that experience gap, building the awareness, skills and expertise pilots need to mitigate the #1 cause of fatalities in all sectors of aviation, Loss of Control In-flight (LOC-I).
See how UPRT can be developed as a continuous capability throughout a pilot's career in the UPRT Provider Assessment Guide + Lifecycle Training Architecture Addendum.

We are pleased to announce that APS has expanded its proven UPRT architecture with the new Bombardier Family UPRT Program. Built on APS's transferable fixed-wing training foundation, the program helps Learjet, Challenger, and Global pilots further integrate upset prevention and recovery competencies within their operational environment.
