Question About CX cadet training content.

I would like to know what aspects will be covered by the training for those cadets?
I can think of the below:
1. aerodynamics
2. meteorology
3. navigation
4. flying skill (flying circuits and other stuff, emergency drills)
5. communication with atc
6. multi-crew communication?
7. multi engine endorsment

I guess the above should be done in adelaide.
Following i guess should be covered in HK base:
1. flying heavy jet simulator
....Cant think of any.

Can someone who has gone throught the training give me some help please? Thanks!

Hi mate,

I think there are totally either 15 or 16 subjects you need to study. Here is what I got, there may be more. Hope this helps. Good luck!

I am not sure this is completely right, so anyone, please correct me if I am wrong. For Multi-engine flight training. I believe they do it in Duchass

Performance E and A (Perf)- For airplanes certificated in Performance Group E and A

Group A ¡V Airplanes with a maximum certificated take off weight exceeding 5700 Kg, with a performance level such that the loss of an engine at any time during the flight should not be necessitate a forced landing. In this group are found such aircraft as the Boeing 747, the airbus 340, the Douglas DC10

Group E- Airplanes for which the extent of performance scheduling is limited. The maximum take off weight shall not exceed 2730kg. For single engine airplanes, the value of Vso ( stalling speed) shall not exceed 60 knots. In this group are found the single engine trainers such as the Piper Warrior, the Cessna 172 and among the twins is one version of Piper Seneca

Does the cadet training includes the frozen ATPL as well? Or do they do it after coming back to HK from BAE?
