Your simulator assessor (check pilot) will be present to answer questions or clarify anything
relating to the simulator detail.

It will be assumed you have studied this briefing document in detail beforehand.

SIMULATOR SET-UP
• ZFW 58.0 T
• Fuel 5.0 T (Fuel Freeze active)
• Turbulence – 5-10%
• Airfield: SAW, ESB, SZF
• Position: Aircraft on runway with engines running and before take-off checks complete.
• Weather:
Wind plus 30° from runway heading at 12kts, Visibility according to approach minimums 15/12 Q1013.
• A/THR is ON for Take-Off/Approach & Manual Flight.
• Headsets not required.

PRE-FLIGHT
The candidates may fly the simulator detail from the left or right seat depending on their preference and will operate as
Pilot Flying (PF) and also as Pilot Monitoring (PM). When operating as PF, the candidate must act as aircraft commander
and will conduct a pre takeoff briefing – they may use any format they feel comfortable with.
The aircraft will be positioned on the runway threshold as per the attached assessment profile.
The assessor will act as an Air Traffic Controller (ATC), Cabin Crew and Ground Staff as required. Standard ATC
instructions shall be issued; these must be read back by the PM using standard ICAO R/T phraseology.

TAKEOFF AND DEPARTURE (SID)


The Crew shall fly the applicable SID. The SID should be flown accurately with good Crew coordination and
communications.

AIR WORK (F/Ds OFF)


Any Airwork/Manoeuvres should only be introduced when the assessor requires specific exercises to determine the
level of competency of the candidate in such areas as scan and manual handling.

NON-NORMAL EVENTS
During the SID a non-normal event must be introduced as a reason for the Crew to return to the departure airfield.
This is selected at assessor’s discretion.

The PF must act as the aircraft commander and come to a reasonable decision using effective CRM skills. Candidates
should complete any memory items and/or call for the appropriate checklist. Once the drills have been completed the
assessor will facilitate as required and respond, ‘Checklist Complete’. Candidates should apply a suitable method or
model for Decision Making, they should make an appropriate ATC call, give NITS and PA.

This is also a practice to assess the individuals English Language Proficiency as the assessor can develop the situation
to require the candidate to brief the PM, Cabin Crew, ATC etc.

Once this exercise is complete the assessor will intervene and ‘return’ the aircraft to normal operation.

APPROACH SETUP AND BRIEFING

Şirket İçi (Internal)


The Crew will be asked to setup for a Non precision Approach (NPA), this may be either VOR or LOC only Approach using
TRK-FPA guidance (Remember to FAIL the Glideslope). Radar vectors to an intercept heading will be provided. If
required, the assessor may use “Position Freeze” to allow the candidates to set up and brief for the NPA approach (a
shortened brief is also acceptable).
Once the briefing is complete, candidate will fly the 3D approach manually with raw data and 2D approach with
automation.

APPROACH AND GO-AROUND


Stable Approach Criteria is 1000 AAL for Pegasus Airlines.

At minimums with no visual reference the Crew will commence a go-around (Candidates may elect to go-around earlier
if they are not stabilised or not meeting approach gate criteria).

At commencement of go-around the assessor shall introduce an Engine Failure (Severe Damage).

The Crew shall need to manage the engine failure during the go-around, fly a safe recovery, complete the appropriate
drills and checklists, keep ATC informed, consider Cabin communications, NITS drills and PA. The Crew should secure the
damaged engine using the ECAM and complete QRH additional checklist

The cloud base will improve to allow for a CAT1 ILS approach and Landing.

GO AROUND OPTION
This is an important part of the decision-making core competency, should a candidate become de-stabilised at any
point during the approach they should elect to go-around. In this case the assessment can end at the completion of
the go-around or if required the assessor may elect to reposition for a second approach.

DEBRIEFING
Post assessment debriefings are not to be conducted at the conclusion of the detail.

All candidates will be notified by the Human Resources Department as soon as possible.
