Build your flying confidence and improve your safety with the Upset Recovery experts! We’ve been doing it for thirty years and we are still one of a few organisations in the world who specialise in this training.
In recent times there have been many unfortunate aircraft accidents. These have been attributed to poor pilot training and lack of unusual attitude and stall awareness throughout all areas of civilian aviation, including the airlines. Several of these have received significant media attention. The problem in our opinion is the fact that many of the recovery skills and emergency manoeuvres which were once mandatory have disappeared from modern-day flight training curricula.
Essential skills like stall and spin recoveries are either not taught or are taught very poorly due to inadequate understanding or lack of qualification by many instructors, even ‘experienced’ ones. And most modern aircraft are not approved for spin training. That doesn’t mean you can’t unintentionally spin one!
In a USA study it was determined that over 91% of fatal stall/spin aircraft accidents commenced at or below circuit altitude with instructors on board. (source: AOPA magazine).
The Red Baron Upset Recovery Course (also known as UPRT is designed to expose you, the pilot, to the most common mishandling situations so you know where your personal limits lie and how to go beyond those limits in an emergency. This course will allow you to experience extreme and unusual attitudes in a controlled environment. It will give you greater confidence in your ability as a pilot and build your awareness of potential dangers BEFORE they happen, and all in realistic aircraft.
You will also better understand the stall and spin and be able to recover from these quickly with minimum height loss in ANY situation.
It’s the very reason our students are taught this during their RPL BEFORE they are allowed to take passengers up.
