Key competencies developed through this program

Auto-populated·from NSX Competency Framework

Mastery: developing (Level 2)(based on Associate's Degree)

  • Pre-flight systems checks — conduct independently across multiple aircraft systems, documenting discrepancies and coordinating corrective action before departure.
  • Instrument flight rules operations — pilot aircraft safely using cockpit instrumentation when visibility is reduced, with minimal oversight from the captain.
  • Takeoff performance calculations — derive independently by integrating airport elevation, ambient temperature, aircraft gross weight, and current wind data for each departure.
  • Air traffic control communications — manage routine radio exchanges for departure, en-route, and arrival phases on regional commercial routes.
  • Fuel load and consumption monitoring — track against flight plan throughout the route and recommend adjustments to maintain adequate reserves.
  • Flight plan preparation — develop using aeronautical charting software and navigation instruments in compliance with FAA regulations and company standard operating procedures.
  • Co-pilot responsibilities — fulfill reliably across the full flight cycle, including takeoff, cruise, descent, and landing, on regularly operated aircraft types.
  • Abnormal system indications — identify during flight monitoring and execute the appropriate checklist response with limited direction from the captain.
  • Route and schedule modifications — propose to dispatch when weather, mechanical, or load factors require changes to ensure safe flight operations.
  • Customer and crew communications — conduct professionally during routine delays or diversions, conveying accurate information with appropriate confidence and clarity.
