PBN COURSE
– Performance Based Navigation –
The PBN Course is an essential requirement for all Instrument Ratings (IR) from 2020. All IRs must be supported by a PBN certification (Performance Based Navigation), by completing a course in an authorized ATO.
Our PBN Course aims to impart all the necessary skills established by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) for Performance Based Navigation (GPS).
Our Alsim AL42 FNTP II and Alsim ALX simulators are duly certified according to the requirements for PBN teaching and proficiency tests.
PBN COURSE
CONTENT STRUCTURE
The course will begin with the theoretical phase, in which the regulated knowledge will be acquired to obtain the PBN certification.
After the theoretical part, the corresponding simulator sessions will be held with briefing and de-briefing to ensure maximum benefit is received from all sessions. Procedures and manoeuvres performed in each session will be discussed for the subsequent passing of the skill test.
