Phase Three of this three-phase programme is conducted with our training partner – Airline Flight Academy – in Dublin, Ireland. We have chosen AFA as our partners for this very important phase of the training.

AFA is a Ryanair approved training organisation with a facility that is state of the art. It gives you the opportunity to finish the Pro Pilot programme knowing you will be receiving the industry leading jet training.

You will complete two modules back-to-back using AFA’s state-of-the-art facility: a combined APS MCC and A-UPRT course.

The Airline Pilot Standard Multi Crew Co-operation (APS MCC) is an enhanced MCC course to train pilots in multi-crew environment up to airline standards. It has quickly become the industry standard and will give you a significant advantage when seeking your first airline job. The course is developed and approved in accordance with EASA AMC2 FCL.735.A. The purpose of this enhanced training is to better prepare the new pilot for the job on a modern aircraft in a modern airline environment.

The Advanced Upset Prevention and Recovery Training (A-UPRT) has been created to allow pilots to gain the understanding and skills to prevent and deal with the Loss of Control in Flight. Since 20th December 2019 it is a mandatory requirement for pilots to complete the Advanced UPRT prior to commencing an initial multi-crew type rating.

The combined APS MCC & Advanced UPRT Course features 40 hours of flight training and is conducted on Boeing 737 MAX Flight simulator. There is additional practical A-UPRT training using a Cessna 152 Aerobat.
