Description
An FAA NPRM would require air carriers to provide new-hire pilots with an opportunity to observe flight operations to become familiar with procedures before serving as a flight crewmember; revise the upgrade curriculum; provide leadership and command and mentoring training for all PICs; and establish Pilot Professional Development Committees. Although this proposal is directed at Part 121 and 135 scheduled carriers, some elements of the new rules would also apply to Part 91K and Part 135 on-demand operations requiring two pilots and that voluntarily chose to train and qualify pilots under Part 121. Comments are due Jan. 5, 2017.
