Good Day,
We need to implement and train URTP in our B737 Airliner. It all seems pretty similar to me, ie pitch, roll, power, stabilize. I would very much like to ask for any guidance on the subject; links, international courses offered, suggestions?
Thank you all in advance.
Shouldn’t you be speaking to ummmm maybe BOEING.............
They May have some info on handling their Aircraft.......

And please tell us which airline/ carrier you are asking for - I’d like to add them to my every growing list of “avoid”.
I know PPRUNE is meant to be an open forum for questions, but the sheer volume of questions from people that ought to know better is truly frightening.

Ya Boeing seems to have had some trouble with large pitch, nose down events recently. They're still working on it. Give them some time. Come back later

Keep it simple.
Concentrate on avoidance; speed and attitude awareness.
Refresh aerodynamic and systems knowledge.
Understand the limitations of simulation, and safety margins provided by certification.

Allison, I would recommend "push?" not "pitch?" first, as with a low nose, high speed, high bank situation "pitching" first may induce a back pressure input before rolling wings level, thus tightening the turn and inducing a spiral dive.

A well described briefing. Should be taught at PPL level or at the latest as part of instrument rating syllabus.

Moving back a page or two, the source page whence came Centaurus' link. This has some more interesting stuff for review.

There’s an ICAO guide that doesn’t appear to have been linked to yet: AUPRTA (http://www.icao.int/safety/loci/auprta/index.html) and they also do it as an app. Not a bad place to start...

A lot of our UPRT training revolved around getting a feeling for the difference in stall margin and control sensitivity at altittude compared to low-level.

With all due respect-scepticaloptomist (https://www.pprune.org/members/476276-scepticaloptomist) Over 70 percent of our pilots were trained in the Airforce, including myself. From transport to helicopters to fighters. The other 30 percent flew Bush planes, turboprops, corporate jets, for thousands of hours before being granted an interview. I apologize if you think we cannot fly. Several of of us do competitive aerobatics. We do not have a single MPL or fast tract cadet employed with us. We have one of the most skillful flight decks, ie 12000 hours combined airline experience. I am surprised by so many of these forums, they are some amazing guys that contribute their knowledge, and then there are some ‘others’ who think they know. Thank you all to those who replied with conservative answers. It’s a LOC-I initiative that is new to us. Either way APS have offered to facilitate our program.

Fair enough allison - I apologise for casting aspersions.
I should follow my own advice and not post when there is nothing useful to contribute. The world would be a better place.

Well, there is some advice I too should take......
