Embry-Riddle Hosts 2010 National Training Aircraft Symposium

Focus Is On Preparing Future Pilots For The Right Seat

Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University will convene the 2010 National Training Aircraft Symposium (NTAS 2010) March 14-17 at its Daytona Beach campus. The theme of the event is "Preparing Future Pilots for the Right Seat."

"This year, the National Training Aircraft Symposium will focus on the issue of first officer pilot qualifications in light of the legislative actions under way in Congress. The results of a collaborative study by several universities regarding first officer performance as new hires will also be presented," says Tim Brady, dean of the College of Aviation, which sponsors the annual symposium.

At the gathering, panelists from three regional airlines will define what they expect to see in graduates from pilot education programs who aspire to be first officers. Educators will join with other symposium participants to craft an educator/employer response to the recent Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on the preparation of first officers for airline Part 121 operations. This response will help guide the FAA administrator and Aviation Rulemaking Committee on appropriate changes to the qualification standards and competencies needed for aspiring first officers.
