Our Jar-OPS 1 company has recently been granted Cat IIIb approval for our Airbus 320´s as per our operations specifications and air operator certificate.
I have read the standard Cat II/III info in Part A of our ops manual.
1) What is required for initial Cat IIIa training ?
2) I understand I need a ground course and at least 3 approaches ?
3) Is an operator´s ground course required in addition to simulator training ?
4) Are there country differences from Jar-Ops in Cat III training ?
5) Where exactly are the Jar-Ops 1 requirements written for training Cat III ? As the authorities appear to be leaving this up to the operator.
I am currently Cat II approved and current.
I did my initial training at Airbus but I am interesting in hearing from pilots who work for Cat III operators and what training they receive.
The Airbus Volume 4 has the info that we require. I am looking for facts and what is written in your (Cat III ) operations manual, if I am not being too bold.( Category D Annex.Cat III )
Thanks a lot in advance for your time.
