New Training Hypothesis – development:
Identify Knowledge, Skills, and Attitudes (KSA) necessary
for pilots to operate safely, efficiently and effectively
Quantify observable means by which to assess the demonstrations
of KSA
Conduct a safety threat analysis {…}
Determine priorities {…} for training and checking in each flight phase
Based on a review of what should be trained, determine best
methodologies for the efficient delivery of pilot KSA

Conclusions
If we fail to make a substantial change to the philosophy of
airline pilot training, we will face an increasing gap between
training and reality. It is time to create an effective bridge
between safety data and the development of training
solutions. At the same time, we must embed robust
methodologies for the handling of real events and the
development of key pilot skills, both technical and
non-technical, into those training solutions.

Coherent, operationally-focussed
Does require investment
Probably already off course
Best practice
