FLIGHT REVIEW DETAILS
Once registered to take your flight review you will receive a preparation guide package to assist you in getting ready for the review. This guide will detail what to expect, include sample checklists, required minimum equipment and any other relevant details. The flight review is not meant to test the pilots abilities to conduct complex manoeuvres. The objective of the flight review is to verify a pilot’s ability to fly their RPAS in the advanced environment.
The flight review will focus on the safety aspect of Advanced RPAS operations, the candidate should be able to demonstrate the following:
-
Describe the site survey process.
-
Describe emergency procedures that apply to flying a RPAS, including lost-link procedures and procedures to follow in the event of a fly-away, including who to contact.
-
Describe the method by which to inform Transport Canada of an incident or accident.
-
Successfully perform pre-flight checks of their RPAS.
-
Perform a take-off.
-
Demonstrate the ability to navigate around obstacles.
-
Demonstrate the ability to recognize distances.
-
Perform a landing.
We will always try to conduct the flight review in Class G airspace where possible as we found this is less stressful on the candidate but sometimes this may not be possible.
The flight review takes about 1 hours and some of the work such as the "Pre-Operations Planning" can be conducted the day before the flight. If on the day of your flight review the weather becomes unfavourable for the flight your examination can be rescheduled.
We understand that every organization is unique and may have specific needs when it comes to RPAS training. We can tailor training or the flight review to meet your needs please contact us to discuss options.
Contact us if you have any questions.
