Lesson
1: This lesson is an introduction to Scenario Based Training
(SBT) and Cirrus Transition Training. This ground lesson is to ensure
that the Pilot in Training (PT) has an understanding of the POH
and the contents within, at a level in which the scenario-based
training can be conducted efficiently, effectively and safely. This
lesson will include analysis of decision making processes, Aeronautical
Decision Making (ADM) concepts and risk factors in relation to an
accident scenario. This lesson will include an overview of the FAA
Industry Training Standards (FITS) and the concepts of a FITS accepted
course. The pilot in training (PT) will be introduced to the advanced
cockpit of a Cirrus aircraft and practice normal checklist use,
avionics symbology and functionality, and CAPS training.
Lesson 2: This lesson provides
an introduction to normal operations and automation using an aircraft
or flight training device. Conducted on a planned cross-country
scenario, this lesson will include normal operations of critical
equipment for flight in VFR and IFR flight. The PT will generate
acceptable solutions and alternatives to normal procedures and ADM
while performing automation management during a cross-country scenario.
The PT will implement normal procedures, including checklists, enroute
procedures and arrival procedures. The PT will make extensive use
of the autopilot to gain proficiency in operating various avionics
in the aircraft.
Lesson 3: This lesson is
an introduction to operational characteristics and normal operations.
This lesson is conducted on a planned cross-country scenario to
provide practice of normal procedures in a technically advanced
aircraft and enhanced aeronautical decision making, information
management, risk management and single-pilot resource management
skills.
Lesson 4: This lesson is
a ground lesson on Aeronautical Decision Making (ADM) through use
of scenarios. This lesson includes numerous risk management tools
and techniques to reduce the overall risks associated with flying.
This lesson includes the use of Power PointTM presentation material
and other media to introduce and explore scenarios, based upon the
certification and ratings of the PT.
Lesson 5: This lesson provides
an introduction to abnormal and emergency operations and automation
competence using an aircraft or flight training device. Conducted
on a planned VFR or IFR cross country scenario, the PT will generate
acceptable solutions, while properly utilizing the automation and
avionics available. The PT will demonstrate extensive use of the
automation to develop his/her skills relating to workload management
and single pilot resource management (SRM) skills.
Lesson 6: This lesson provides
additional instruction regarding abnormal and emergency operations,
with emphasis on the ability of the PT to safely fly the aircraft
without the use of the autopilot. Conducted on a planned VFR or
IFR cross country scenario, the PT will generate acceptable solutions,
while using those resources, other than automation, to generate
a safe outcome.
Lesson 7: This lesson is
to demonstrate ADM and SRM skills during normal, abnormal, and emergency
operations, while demonstrating both automation and manual flying
competence. Conducted on a planned VFR or IFR cross. country scenario,
the PT will generate acceptable solutions, while effectively using
all resources that are available.
Lesson 8: This lesson is
the final evaluation flight that will take into account previously
learned material. Conducted on a planned cross country scenario,
the PT will demonstrate knowledge and skill levels that meet or
exceed defined desired outcomes.
Note: Optional biennial flight review and/or instrument
proficiency check training can only be conducted after satisfactorily
completing the transition training course.
Lesson 9 : Optional biennial
flight review in which an additional half day of training will be
required to cover the required ground material.
Lesson 10 : Optional instrument
proficiency check in which an additional day of training will be
needed to cover the required ground and flight lessons.
