UK Flightdeck crew - First Aid requirement
 

For a operator to comply with EASA regulation - how often do flight deck crew ( pilots not Cabin crew) need to complete a First Aid course??

Considering we can't meet the pax face to face in flight I would have thought the answer should be zero. But we are talking about EAarseA. But having said that, I have had to use my first aid training serveral times. As a life skill it is a very useful thing but a locked cockpit door does make first aid rather difficult.

The cabin crew are trained to a better standard than the pilots, and in use of equipment, medication from the onboard and carry on medications etc.

He may be referring to business aircraft.

UK AOC holder - how often is it mandatory to renew? yearly or 2 yearly?

Well at this UK AOC, scheduled passenger ops - no requirement at all...
