Multi-Crew Cooperation - Mike Becker

. .

Résumé :
While common in the airline industry, Multi-Crew Cooperation is only now becoming better understood in the helicopter industry as larger and more sophisticated helicopters become available and high-intensity operations, including NVG and IFR, become increasingly common in the helicopter working environment. This book explains Crew Resource Management, Threat and Error Management and Multi-Crew Cooperation specific to the helicopter operating environment. Multi-Crew Cooperation for Helicopter Pilots is written by Captain Mike Becker, one of Australia's most experienced helicopter instructors. Mike Becker started flying in 1984. His career has been as diverse as the number of helicopter types he has flown - the smaller R22 to the larger B212 and Sikorski S62, and most types in between. He is experienced in a vast range of helicopter operations, including high altitude, remote area operations, mustering, firefighting, tourism, sling load operations, specialised long line operations, search and rescue, and Night Vision Goggles operations. He has been operating a helicopter flight school since 1995. As Chief Pilot and Chief Flight Instructor, Mike operated a fleet of over 20 helicopters and employed more than 30 instructors delivering over 10,000 training hours per year. With over 16,000 flight hours and the recipient of the Captain John Ashton Award for Flight Standards and Aviation Safety by the Guild of Air Pilots and Air Navigators of London, Mike's experience provides invaluable insights and real hands-on knowledge. This theory book converts all this experience and those of his instructional staff into a practical, hands-on guide. Multi-Crew Cooperation teaches practical techniques to maximise safety margins, promote team coordination in the constantly changing environment of helicopter flight operations....
