Thus, at the end of the course you will be familiar with the applicable regulations, how Airlines implement those regulations in order to be compliant and to fulfill their duty to maintain safety as well as the PIC’s position within Airline Management Systems. This training will be highly interactive. You discuss case studies and work on other exercises.
