“Having personally trained hundreds of airline pilots in strict accordance with the APS Airbus Type-specific Upset Prevention and Recovery Training program, the knowledge and skill benefits are powerful and long lasting. Without exception, the crews walk away from the course with a vastly increased awareness and a clear understanding that upset prevention, bolstered by potent recovery skills, is the main line of defense in overcoming Loss of Control In-flight. In addition to gaining a robust understanding of the Airbus fly-by-wire controls laws and their practical management in degraded modes, pilots gain their most powerful life-saving skills from diligently pursuing the proven and resilient APS methods and technologies to assure pilot effectiveness and efficiency in an airplane upset crisis.”
