Performance A?

[Leave 5 on the glide]

Ladies & Gents,

Can someone enlighten me as to what the "Performance A" course is, and at what sort of time during your flight training you normally do it please?

Thanks very much,

It used to be part of the CPL/SCPL/ATPL written exam syllabus, now its replaced by the JAA Performance exams.

So you will do it with the rest of the written exams and after you have spent about 6 months in ground school.

mutt - thanks very much for the reply. It's probably not suprising that I hadn't heard of it, being that I hold an FAA CPL! Thanks very much again.

Cheers,

.. that's cruel .. but is it true?

Taught, but not understood well enough to be applied in all circumstances would also be cruel, but perhaps closer to the truth.
