IS BAO

IS-BAO ...  What is it? The International Standard for Business Aviation Operations put out by the International Aviation Business Council, IBAC. What does this standard say about Upset Recovery Training? Until 2014 it was not mentioned. In the 2014 version of the standard it has become a "recommended practice." That's great news!

ICATEE, the International Committee on Aircraft Training in Extended Envelopes has been very clear in its publications that Upset Recovery training in actual aircraft is a vital component of the solution to the hazard of LOC-I. Go to the link for ICATEE on the Contacts and Links page of the website for more info about this hard working committee that tells it like it is!

Fortunately the ICATEE committee includes experts in the practice of upset recovery training in real aircraft such as APS and CALSPAN. As a result their recommendations have teeth in them.
