AVT 220L - Multi-Engine Simulator


Credits: 1
1 Skills Lab Hours

Co-requisites: AVT 220  

Description
AVT-220L is an optional lab that enhances the multi-engine flight theory with a practical simulation experience. Students engage with state-of-the-art flight simulators, translating theoretical knowledge into practical skills within a multi-engine context. The lab’s curriculum is developed to strengthen proficiency in system management, emergency response and CRM/SRM application within simulated multi-engine flying scenarios. This focused approach is designed to elevate students’ readiness for the FAA Multi-Engine Oral Exam and to promote competence in multi-engine aircraft operations.
Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of the course, the student will:

  1. Manage simulated flights in multi-engine aircraft, showcasing their grasp of complex aerodynamics and flight operation principles.
  2. Apply emergency procedures in a simulated setting, specifically addressing engine-out contingencies and safety measures.
  3. Demonstrate proficient use of Crew and Single-Pilot Resource Management in a multi-engine flight simulation.
  4. Analyze engine-out scenarios in the simulator, developing advanced problem-solving and aircraft handling capabilities.
  5. Assess risk management strategies within Aeronautical Decision-Making processes during simulated complex flight operations.
  6. Predict pilot performance under stress, illness and fatigue in simulated scenarios to understand the impact on flight safety.
  7. Design cross-country flight plans in a simulated multi-engine context.
  8. Integrate comprehensive operational techniques.
