Emergency procedures training is offered by several business aviation OEMs and all of the major simulator training companies as part of their wide array of training products. But two smaller, independent companies–Stark Survival Training and Facts/AirCare–specialize in emergency procedures training, and their programs stand out among all of the offerings.
And to prepare for the rare event when things go really bad, Stark Survival Training (www.starksurvival. com) of Panama City, Fla., offers several highly regarded seminars. In the emergency crewmember training for international operations program, ditching procedures, water survival, cockpit fire and smoke management/evacuation are covered. The program starts with a review of pertinent accident/incident reviews and lessons that can be learned. In the ditching portion students learn aircraft ditching procedures, appropriate crew coordination, passenger preparation, cabin preparation and actual evacuation procedures.
