Sequencing of Emergency Procedure Training during the Primary Phase of IERW
Abstract
This study determined if delaying emergency procedure training to a later flight hour level would reduce the training time required to teach emergency maneuvers. An alternate flight training sequence that delayed emergency training was developed. Students from three Initial Entry classes were randomly selected and placed into two groups. One group received training using a delayed emergency training sequence and the other group received training using the current sequence. Comparisons between the two groups. Major findings were: No significant difference existed between the test and control group on the number of emergency maneuver iterations required to pass the Primary Phase flight evaluation; The hour level that students in the test group were prepared to pass the Primary Phase checkride was not significantly different; There was no significant difference in the Contact Phase checkride grades; The performance of students on individual maneuvers during the Primary Phase checkride was not shown to be significantly different; Instructor pilots believe student pilot safety will suffer and weak students will be identified much later if emergency training is delayed until the tweleve hour level.
