Flight International is running its highly praised Crew Management Conference this year in London, 30th November and 1st December 2009.
This years event focuses on pilots and how to enable them to perform at their best for their airline, their passengers and the insurers. At a time when airlines have to get the most from all their assets to survive the economic downturn, company crew management skills and piloting best practice are critical. Best practice delivers efficiency and reduced cost at the same time as improving safety.
Why should you be there? - Commercial air transport worldwide is under unprecedented pressure from all sides. Revenue is falling while fuel costs, user charges and taxation are rising. Yet operational standards cannot be allowed to fall. Even in good times an accident or serious incident can have a devastating effect on a successful business. In times like these it could prove terminal. On the other hand there are opportunities for improved sector efficiencies, both en-route and terminal. Meanwhile attitudes to what constitutes suitable type and recurrent training for airline pilots in highly automated aircraft are changing, and new training approaches can yield better results without increasing cost. Finally, do you know how to get more flying hours out of your crews without fatiguing them?
Who should attend? Airline or business aviation pilots, especially chief pilots; airline operations managers; airline human resources personnel; pilot training specialists; aviation regulators; human factors specialists; aviation medical specialists, aircraft, avionic equipment and simulator manufacturers.
All this, plus a facilitated workshop/brainstorming session on the final afternoon. This is your opportunity to choose the topics you want to explore further, discuss them with our specialists and your peers, enabling you to sift priorities and identify solutions for your organisation.
