    The Crew Resource Managment (CRM) course is a study of the attitudes and skill sets that enable flight crews to effectively manage the complex flight environment. Teamwork, communication, leadership, situation awareness, workload and automation management, controlled flight into terrain awareness, and decision-making are among those vital skills to enhance the safety and effectiveness of a technically competent pilot crew. The evolution of CRM and the integration of CRM into flight crew training as well as the safety culture of an airline are examined. The proven effectiveness of CRM for managing threats and errors are viewed through the lens of the Line Operations Safety Audit. Consideration is given to the impact of diverse international cultures on the effectiveness of CRM.

Study of the following topics within the FAA approved ground/flight school syllabus includes knowledge of airports; airspace, flight information; meteorology, airplane performance, VFR cross country flight planning and navigation, aviation physiology, high performance powerplants, environmental and ice control systems, complex aircraft transition, advanced aerodynamics, predicting performance, controlling weight and balance, maximum performance takeoffs and landings, emergency procedures and single pilot resource management for single and multi-engine commercial pilot operations. Instruction in a flight training device is also available. Upon successful completion of this course, the student will possess the aeronautical knowledge to pass the FAA written exam for the Commercial Pilot Certificate.
  • 2.00 Credits

    This course is designed to begin the practical flight training required for the successful attainment of the airplane Commercial pilot certificate utilizing an FAA approved Part 141 training curriculum. During the flight training the student increases proficiency in VFR cross-country procedures by planning and performing extended cross-country flight operations. the student also increases proficiency in performing night flight operations. There is one stage of flight training. The one lecture hour of practical application may be integrated into the ASA 211flight theory course as appropriate at the discretion of the course instructor. The practical course instructor will facilitate the resolution of any flight training issues that may arise.
  • 2.00 Credits

    This course is designed to complete the practical flight training required for the successful attainment of the Commercial Pilot certificate utilizing an FAA approved Part 141 training curriculum. The student gains proficiency in operating a complex aircraft or a Technologically Advanced Aircraft (TAA) and includes learning the procedures to operate complex airplane systems, equipment malfunctions and failures. The TAA training includes operation of the Garmin G3X Touch, GTN 750 and GFC autopilot or similar TAA recognized equipment. The student performs maneuvers and procedures to attain the proficiency level required for an airplane Commercial Pilot certificate with an instrument rating. The students must attend the one-hour flight practical lecture class during the semester to learn the operational features of the Garmin G3X Touch, GTN 750 and GFC autopilot. Students are required to communicate weekly with the practical course instructor regarding their flight course progress and to facilitate the resolution of any issues that may arise during flight training.
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course introduces the student to the dynamics of flight through investigation of airfoils and shapes as they relate to aircraft structures and their interaction with the atmosphere during flight. Analysis of the physics of flight, coefficient of lift, relationship of lift/drag, aerodynamic devices, interaction of airframe/airfoils with the atmosphere during flight, low/high speed aerodynamics, mach effects, area rule, wing sweep are discussed. Aircraft performance based on powerplant type and special flight conditions experienced by commercial pilots is evaluated.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Designed to provide insight pertinent to federal governing bodies. Current local, federal and international laws which form the present structure of aviation law are studied.
  • 2.00 Credits

    Air Carrier Operations is a one hour per week lecture/discussion class period. Students will review and discuss in detail Federal Aviation Regulations contained in Part 119-Certification of Air Carriers and Commercial Operators.. Subject material of this course is intended to familiarize the entry level commercial pilot with the certification process, operations specifications, and the use of standard operating procedures used in part 135 and 121 flight operations. The required management personnel for both types of operations will also be explored. The regulatory requirements in the following areas will be examined: flight operations, aircraft and equipment, weather, flight crew member training and dispatching requirements.
  • 1.00 Credits

    This course is designed to provide the appropriate knowledge and aeronautical decision making tools in compliance with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approved Part 141 training curriculum needed to obtain a multi-engine land class rating. The multi-engine rating will be earned as part of the Commercial pilot flight training curriculum, specifically the requirement for complex aircraft training. During the training, the student will become familiar with the multi-engine airplane and the human factors concepts and issues relating to multi-engine operations. The student will learn airplane systems and aerodynamics and how to accurately compute and control the weight and balance for a multi-engine airplane. The student will learn procedures and maneuvers that apply to instrument flight in the multi-engine airplane during normal and engine out operations. Upon successful completion of this course, the student will possess the aeronautical knowledge to pass the FAA practical oral exam for the issuance of a multi-engine land class rating.
  • 2.00 Credits

    This course is designed to provide the appropriate aeronautical skill and decision making tools in compliance with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approved Part 141 training curriculum for the addition of a multi-engine land class rating to the existing Commercial pilot certificate. During stage one of the training, the student will become familiar with the multi-engine airplane, human factors, concepts and issues relating to multi-engine operations. The student will learn airplane systems and aerodynamics and how to accurately compute and control the weight and balance for the multi-engine airplane. The student will be able to analyze multi-engine performance and compute accurate values from multi-engine performance data. In the second stage of the course, the student will acquire the aeronautical knowledge necessary for multi-engine VFR operations. The student will learn the principles, techniques, and procedures associated with engine out aerodynamics and critical decision making in engine out operations for the multi-engine airplane. In stage three of training, the student will demonstrate knowledge of basic instrument procedures and acquire the knowledge required to plan safe flight operations under IFR in the multi-engine airplane. The student will learn procedures and maneuvers that apply to instrument flight in the multi-engine airplane during normal and engine out operations. Instruction in an Advanced Aviation Training Device is also available. Upon successful completion of this course, the student will possess the aeronautical skill and knowledge to pass the FAA practical and oral exam for the addition of the airplane multi-engine land class rating to the existing Commercial pilot certificate.
