COMMAND STANDARDS ASSESSMENT Sample Clauses

COMMAND STANDARDS ASSESSMENT. 61.1.1 When a pilot’s logbook reflects 500 hours in the period prior to meeting the command eligibility requirements (the pre-command period) and the pilot intends to nominate for command upon meeting the command eligibility requirements, the Company will require that pilot to be reviewed by a Command Review Panel (the CRP) or its equivalent. 61.1.2 The purpose of the CRP is to assess whether pilots are eligible to commence initial command training; and to develop training programs for pilots as required in order to ensure that pilots can access command upgrade training and ultimately be command-ready. 61.1.3 Pilots in the command pool are automatically eligible for vacancies to commence command upgrade training pursuant to the relative seniority clause at clause 23. Pilots will access the command pool once they have been assessed as eligible for command upgrade training by the CRP, or within 12 months of the start date of the pre-command period, whichever comes first. 61.1.4 The CRP shall comprise fifty percent Company representatives and fifty percent pilot representatives. Pilot representatives will be nominated by the Eastern Pilot Council and will require approval from the Company. 61.1.5 The CRP may assess some pilots as requiring the completion of a pre-command training course prior to entering the command pool. 61.1.6 The CRP will assess pilots via the following assessment process and a consideration of the employee file, human factors, current standards of technical knowledge and flying: a) Phase 1: CRP interview b) Phase 2: Line flying observation c) Phase 3: Simulator LOA d) Phase 4: Re-evaluation via CRP and pre-command training phase initiated if deemed necessary by the CRP. 61.1.7 The total assessment period cannot exceed 3 months. 61.1.8 If the pilot is assessed as being deficient in any area relevant to commencing command upgrade training in the pre-command period, they will be referred by the CRP to an individually tailored pre-command training program aimed at ensuring the pilot has the opportunity to be fully skilled prior to commencing command upgrade training. 61.1.9 The training program can only apply to a maximum period of 9 months after the CRP has made the decision to implement the training program.
