Florida-based
Flight Training Company Selects Upset Recovery
Training Provider
ORLANDO, FL: Flight Training Services International’s
worldwide flight training academy, the Commercial Airline Pilot
Training (CAPT) Program based at the Flagler
County Airport in Palm Coast, FL, announced
today at the National Business Aviation Association’s
59th annual convention that it has selected
APS Emergency Maneuver Training as its provider
of Upset Recovery Training.
APS Emergency Maneuver Training, an FAA-approved
141 Flight School specializing in Upset Recovery,
Spin Training and Instrument Recovery courses,
offers what has been coined the "Master's Degree
Program in Emergency Maneuver Training". The
APS staff of instructors are all former military
formal-course instructor pilots with vast airline
experience to ensure the recovery techniques
taught at APS will be indispensable to the CAPT
graduates throughout their professional pilot
career. In addition, the APS fleet of German-built
Extra 300Ls is the ideal classroom to safely
instruct all aspects of the various APS training
programs. Although APS teaches its course within
the performance capabilities of both General
Aviation and Business Jet aircraft, the Extra
300L is certified to +/- 10G’s, has no prohibited
maneuvers, boasts jet-like performance and has
a climb rate in excess of 3200 fpm, making it
one of the safest and most capable aircraft
in the sky. More information is available online
at www.apstraining.com.
“CAPT is committed to providing the highest
quality training available to the General Aviation
Community. Whether it’s a GA Owner & Operator
or a CAPT Ab-Initio Student, our training programs
provide the highest level of comprehensive training
available. We recognize that loss of control,
while in-flight, is one of the leading causes
of aviation accidents. Therefore, it only makes
sense to teach pilots upset recovery techniques.”
said Shawn Raker, President of Flight Training
Services International, “APS Emergency Maneuver
Training has demonstrated its ability to consistently
provide our students with the highest quality
training available in the marketplace in a manner
that directly compliments our vision and training
curriculum”.
CAPT, a division of Flight Training Services
International, offers Cirrus owners and operators
initial and recurrent training in the full line
of Cirrus aircraft. CAPT also offers a full-immersion,
one-year program that trains individuals with
no flight experience to the highest standards
of the commercial airline industry. It uses
the latest technologies to deliver airline-specific
training, including in-flight video cameras,
self-reflecting journaling, line operations
safety audits, and a curriculum built on a foundation
of crew concepts and crew resource management.
