Abstract
Multi-crew pilot license (MPL) is a new pilot licensing concept introduced and operated by ICAO. Mostly, candidates for MPL are educated and drilled with competency-based trainings (CBTs). In this paper, to present education and training measures for the domestic MPL application, ICAO documents and Korea aviation laws for pilot licensing, domestic and foreign airlines' employee requirements, and status of operations related to MPL system are identified. Also feasibility of MPL application in Korea is reviewed by checking approved domestic aviation training institutions' capabilities, airlines' pilot demands, and concerns of airlines and trainees with MPL system. Finally, three education and training measures on MPL application in Korea for the air navigation safety are suggested.
