GM1 ORO.FC.231(a)(5)
Evidence-based training
CONTINGENCY
PROCEDURES — RATINGS RENEWAL
(a) The renewal of ratings (e.g. type rating
or instrument rating) in EBT follows the Annex I (Part-FCL) to the Aircrew
Regulation provisions (IRs and AMC) and is complemented with the provisions
covered in AMC1 ORO.FC.231(a)(5). The ATO or the operator will determine the
amount of training following Part-FCL; however, as EBT combines assessment and
training, the following guidance is applicable:
(1) Expiry shorter than 3 months may not
require additional training in Part-FCL. In EBT, the missing module is
rescheduled with an EBT instructor. Following that, the EBT manager for the
type rating may renew the licence without extra training, as the EBT programme
is now completed (at least two modules in the last 12 months).
(2) In Part-FCL, when the expiry is longer
than 3 months but shorter than 1 year, there need to be two training sessions.
In EBT, there are two cases:
(i) One module is missing: the pilot must
complete the missing module (two simulator sessions) before resuming line
operations. Following that, the EBT manager for the type rating may renew the
licence in accordance with Appendix 10 as the EBT programme is now completed
(two modules in the last 12 months).
(ii) Two modules are missing: the pilot must
complete one module (two simulator sessions) and training topics B and C of
the other missing module (an extra simulator session) with a total of three
simulator sessions. Training data is gathered in a short time period;
therefore, an EBT instructor with examiner privilege is involved to ensure the
proficiency of the pilot.
(b) In case of an expiry longer than 1 year,
the requirements of Part-FCL will be followed and the proficiency checks will
be performed in accordance with Appendix 9 as the EBT system may not have
sufficient training data for the pilot.
Expiry
longer than 1 year but shorter than 3 years: a minimum of three training
sessions in which the most important malfunctions in the available system are
covered plus a proficiency check in accordance with Appendix 9 to renew the
licence.
Evidence-based training (EBT) impacts pilot rating renewals. For expirations under 1 year, EBT allows tailored training modules instead of standard requirements. Longer expirations (1-3 years) require focused simulator sessions and proficiency checks. Expirations over 3 years necessitate standard regulatory proficiency checks due to insufficient EBT data.
