FlightSafety International (Booth G043) has expanded its “Rejected Takeoff Go/No-Go” course for pilots of Gulfstream aircraft. The course, which promotes best practices and enhances go/no-go decision-making, is now available for GIV, GV, G450, G550 and G650 jets.
During this four-hour course, two-pilot flight crews will be put through a series of V1 decision scenarios that will allow them to become proficient in their flight department’s takeoff briefings and the go/no-go decision. In total, each crewmember will face 18 different V1 scenarios, requiring a decision to either continue the takeoff or abort.
Additionally, the rejected takeoff course gives pilots multiple opportunities to experience the high stress and demands of an emergency return. “Many pilots have never operated their aircraft with the level of aggressiveness required to get back to the airport quickly under emergency conditions,” FlightSafety said.
The course is offered at FlightSafety learning centers in Dallas; Hong Kong; Savannah, Ga; Long Beach, Calif.; Wilmington, Del.; and at the UK’s Farnborough Airport.
In related news, the company is adding training for the G650 at its Farnborough center starting in March 2017, following level-D qualification of the simulator. This will be FlightSafety’s fourth training location and fifth simulator for the Gulfstream flagship. Currently, two G650 simulators are at its center in Savannah and one each at Long Beach and Wilmington.
