FlightSafety International announces that it will offer a specialized London City airport steep approach operations training program for Gulfstream G650 pilots.
“FlightSafety courseware developers and simulation engineers worked with their counterparts at Gulfstream to develop this new London City Airport Training program,” said Dann Runik, Senior Vice President, Operations. “This is another example of the excellent cooperation between FlightSafety and Gulfstream, and our mutual commitment to provide G650 operators with the training programs they require.”
The Gulfstream G650 London City Special Airport Training program includes an eLearning module, ground school, and a simulator session at a Learning Center. Topics include an overview of the London City airport and regulatory requirements followed by modules on arrivals, approaches and landings, ground operations, departures, noise abatement, and Human Factors / CRM Elements as required.
