“This Training Will Save Your Life”: A Veteran Pilot’s Take on UPRT
“I guarantee you—you’re going to leave with a skill set that’s next to none.”
In this candid testimonial, a highly experienced pilot describes the realization that his flight training had left critical gaps that APS Upset Prevention and Recovery Training (UPRT) finally filled.
From full stalls and spins to disorienting upsets, this training brought him face to face with situations no one expects and few are truly prepared for. The goal wasn’t perfection. The goal was competence, resilience, and recovery.
Most pilots never hear about the successful recoveries made possible by training like this. They only hear about the ones that didn’t make it. APS exists to equip pilots with the tools, reflexes, and mental clarity to prevent tragedy before it happens.
