Brief Description:
- The fatal accident rate for Experimental/Amateur-built aircraft is more than twice the rate for traditionally manufactured aircraft.
- Some General aviation accidents are associated with inadequate pilot performance do to inadequate or no transition training in the accident aircraft
- Transition training is essential to flight safety in ALL aircraft, but especially when transitioning into Experimental Amateur-built and Light Sport aircraft.
- Transition training is often required when transitioning to modified aircraft – particularly when modifications alter flight characteristics.
- Because amateur-built aircraft flight characteristics, aircraft controls and instrument placement can vary significantly from one builder to another, airframe-specific transition training is often recommended.
- Even transitioning from on production aircraft to another (e.g., Cessna 172 to Grumman Tiger) requires training specific to the differences between the types.
- Transition training instructors must be thoroughly familiar with each airframe in which they give instruction.
- An excellent source for identifying such instructors is the type club for that aircraft.
