  • Loss of Control in Flight(LOC-I) due to aircraft upset attitude has the highest air accident rate, and International Aviation Institute such as ICAO and FAA recommended flight crew to operate aircraft safely through UPRT(Upset Prevention & Recovery Training) program. ICAO has selected Loss of Control(LOC) as key safety indicator, and recommended to respond using TEM(Threat and Error Management). However there are not much specific treats and errors classified for UPRT programs using real TEM based on evidences. This study intends to consider the importance of UPRT through the introduction of UPRT and accident analysis using TEM. Typical upset accidents were classified to common threats as IFR, inadequate training, Automation surprise, and inexperienced copilots. The common errors were cross-check, speed and altitude deviation, callouts, communication, thrust and stall action fail. The undesired aircraft states were inadequate automation mode, Deviation of speed and vertical, stall, and crash. These suggest areas to improve UPRT.

  • UPRT(Upset Prevention And Recovery Training) is an accident prevention training program developed over a three-year period after the main cause of aircraft accidents in commercial aviation between 2001 and 2011 was analyzed as LOC-I(Loss Of Control Flight). In 2014, ICAO presented UPRT for fixed-wing aircraft through Doc.10011(Manual On Aeroplane Upset Prevention And Recovery Training) and recommended mandatory implementation to Contracting States from March 2019. Since naval P-3C is a major mission of maritime patrol and anti-submarine warfare, it takes a lot of time to fly at low altitude (70-600 m), and the majority of P-3C pilots have experienced spatial disorientation, so Upset prevention and recovery training is essential for naval P-3C pilots. To this end, this study intends to present measures for UPRT from limited conditions using the P-3C simulator owned by the Navy.

  • According to the results of a survey by Boeing, LOC-I (Loss of Control in Flight) was the highest in the number of deaths by fatality accident category in the past 10 years from 2012 to 2021, and the number of deaths worldwide due to LOC-I accidents was 757. It turned out to be the biggest cause of aircraft fatalities, with a figure close to twice the sum of UNK (Unknown or Undetermined), which is the 2nd place, and CFIT (Controlled Flight Into or Toward Terrain), which is the 3rd place. This study set six scenarios related to spatial disorientation that may occur during sensory-dependent flight targeting student pilots and instructor pilots at domestic designated specialized educational institutions using flight simulation training equipment, and in each scenario, the pilot's. The need for SDRT (Spatial Disorientation Recovery Training) is verified by analyzing the flight experience and recovery ability by qualification, and SDRT is repeatedly performed to verify and present the training cycle and time.
