Description Section 3 Content Section 3 Content Left Section 3 Content Right Objective: The course objective is for military personnel (i.e., US Air Force) whose primary duty is to develop instrument approach and departure procedures that conform to US TERPS standards. Graduates of this course will have a comprehensive knowledge of criteria and the design fundamentals as developed using the USAF Global Procedure Developer program. Training will consist of lecture, exercises, and automation application exploring the topics of: TERPS Management, Basic TERPS Criteria, TERPS Automation Database, Non-Precision Approach segments, Area Navigation (RNAV), Precision Approach Procedures, Diverse Departures, Route Departures, RADAR Procedures and RADAR Charts. This course is GROUP Paced. Learning Outcomes: Apply the basic TERPS Principles and Database Administration Demonstrate use of the USAF GPD system to construct and document Instrument Approach and Departure Procedures with minimal assistance Apply basic TERPS principles as they pertain to the USAF GPD system and the construction and documentation of Instrument Flight Procedures with minimal assistance Manage the TERPS Database Administration as it pertains to the USAF GPD system and the construction and documentation of Instrument Flight Procedures with minimal assistance Use the USAF GPD system to construct or amend and document a Precision Instrument Approach Procedure with minimal assistance Use the USAF GPD system to construct or amend and document a Non-Precision Instrument Approach Procedure with minimal assistance Use the USAF GPD system to construct or amend and document a Departure Procedure with minimal assistance Use the USAF GPD system to construct or amend and document a Radar Instrument Approach Procedure with minimal assistance Use the USAF GPD system to construct or amend and document a RNAV Instrument Approach Procedure with minimal assistance General Topics: General math and administrative requirements GPD introduction and data management Non-precision approach procedures Precision approach procedures Area navigation (RNAV) Departure procedures RADAR procedures Instruction & Assessment Section 4 Content Section 4 Content Left Section 4 Content Right Instructional Strategies: Audio Visual Materials Classroom Exercise Laboratory Lectures Practical Exercises Methods of Assessment: Quizzes Minimum Passing Score: 70% Supplemental Materials Section 5 Content Section 5 Content Left Section 5 Content Right Section 6 Content Section 6 Content Left Section 6 Content Right Button Content Rail Content 1 Other offerings from Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Academy Academy Basic Instructor Training (FAA-0289) ACEPS Standby/Critical Power & Distribution Systems (FAA-0720) Air Traffic Basics (TRACON) (FAA-0632) Enhanced Terminal Voice Switch (ETVS) Overview (FAA-0715) Facility Instructor Training (FAA-0003) Initial En Route Qualification Training (FAA-0843) Initial Tower Cab Training (FAA-0620) Instructor Effectiveness Training (Blended) (FAA-0850) Litton Rapid Deployment Voice Switch (RDVS) IIA (FAA-0584) Medium Intensity Approach Lighting System with Runway Alignment Indicator (MALSR) Enhanced Hands on (FAA-0730) View All Courses Page Content
