Key Takeaways:
CAE, in collaboration with the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) and other industry experts, has published an "Airplane Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) Manual."
The manual aims to standardize operational procedures across the aviation industry, promoting consistent and proven standards for both multi- and single-pilot operations.
These industry-wide SOPs are designed to enhance safety and operational consistency, especially benefiting smaller operations that may lack the resources to develop their own procedures.
CAE will integrate these new SOPs into its worldwide pilot training programs, with instructors being prepared in early 2026 for a full rollout in training sessions starting later that year.
