The article reports that the Boeing Co. urges the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration and other regulatory authorities to allow pilots to transition to the 787 aircraft from the 777 aircraft without having to go through a full-flight simulator. According to Boeing 787 training director Alfred Nader, they are developing evolutionary training system for a revolutionary new aircraft. The system, being developed with Boeing's full-service airline training subsidiary Alteon, will include more advanced computer-based training (CBT) that is linked to full-flight simulators, and touchscreen, flat-panel trainers that will replace traditional CBT. To aid the planning and approval process, Boeing and Alteon have developed a pilot qualification plan and a separate mechanic qualification plan. |
