This course examines the common concepts of crew resource management as developed by major air carriers. Topics include supervision of crew members, counseling, accountability, coordination and relationship of authority.

A comprehensive examination of the U.S. national air traffic control system and how it affects aviation in general, and pilots and safety in particular, this course covers the air traffic control system (enroute, terminal and Flight Service Stations), air traffic control personnel, training, duties and facilities.

This study of aircraft systems includes hydraulics, air-conditioning, cabin pressurization, anti-icing systems, fuel systems, electrical systems, landing systems, flight control systems, fire-detection systems and pneumatic systems. Completion of the course gives students operational understanding of the system of high performance aircraft, including turboprop and other turbine engines.

A comprehensive study of transportation law, this course covers regulatory statutes and federal regulations. Students are also introduced to civil and criminal law as applied to transportation, including such aspects as operation, contracts, insurance, liability, litigation and case law.

This course assists students in preparing for the Commercial Pilot written exam. Classroom instruction includes advanced maneuvers, Federal Aviation Regulations, aerodynamics, weather and safe operation of aircraft. This course helps students prepare for the FAA knowledge, oral, and practical examinations. Meets requirements of 14 CFR 141.

Students obtain the aeronautical skill and experience necessary to meet the requirements for a commercial pilot certificate with an airplane category rating and single-engine class rating. Students are introduced to commercial maneuvers and complex/high performance operations. The credit hours will post to the student's transcript upon completion of the FAA Commercial Pilot Practical Exam.

This course is designed to provide the student with the foundational and fundamental knowledge sets pertaining to aerodynamics. This course will improve student understanding of aerodynamic laws and principles.

This course focuses on the specific components of the Unmanned Aircraft System. Piloting and payload and sensor operations are covered along with datalinks and autonomous systems. Students will continue developing their operations skillsets as they determine which UAS role is appropriate for different scenarios. This course also introduces UAS Crew Resource Management (CRM) concepts, mission planning, and pertinent UAS regulations.

Students will obtain relevant industry experience by taking part in actual unmanned operations in the field. Students will apply fundamental mission creation parameters and successfully achieve objectives.

This survey of the historical developments of air transportation systems covers facilities; impact of regulations; problems encountered in commercial transportation; airline economics, management and organization; role of governments in air transportation; and economic, social, political, and future implications of air transportation. Human dependency on air transportation is ever increasing because of globalization of economies and the need to make great use of scarce time. It is therefore of prime importance for students in aviation, particularly those in flight, to study the development of the industry and how it affects society and the economy.

The objective of this course is to introduce students to safety management systems applied to transportation safety programs through a study of proactive, preventative risk management processes that include hazard identification and mitigation.
