Command Upgrade

Course Outline

This training program will provide you with the required knowledge expected of those who aspire to command.  Most individuals who have got into ‘bother’ of one sort or another in the past have usually done so not because of a lack of handling skill, but because of poor or incomplete knowledge or a failure to apply that knowledge to best advantage. 

It is critical that commanders know what is in their company operations manuals and are aware of the location of information for subsequent referral and use. This will take effort. However, this theoretical training course will provide the knowledge, strategies, procedures, and approaches that Captains require to effectively command a flight and its crew.
