When the NBAA’s single-pilot working group, an offshoot of the association’s well-known safety committee, met in person for the first time 18 months ago, its goal was simple: bring together whatever resources it could muster to help stem the rising accident rate for people operating airplanes for business with themselves as the only pilot. The Single-Pilot Resource page the NBAA unveiled last week is one of the first tangible results of those efforts.
NBAA Unveils Single-Pilot Operator Resource Site
Key Takeaways:
- The NBAA has launched a new "Single-Pilot Resource" webpage, a result of efforts to address the rising accident rate among business pilots operating alone.
- The page serves as a central hub for single-pilot operators, offering resources like Training Guidelines for Single-Pilot Operations to aid transitions to light jets and technically advanced aircraft.
- It provides information on the annual Single-Pilot Safety Standdown and links to the "Alone in the Cockpit" video, which highlights how easily single pilots can become overwhelmed by poor decisions and adverse weather.
