The International Test Pilots School (ITPS) and Honeywell have teamed to launch a new flight test training program designed to improve the way flight test professionals are trained. ITPS has developed a Hybrid Industry Training Solutions for Flight Test Teams program, and the Honeywell Aerospace Flight Test team will be the launch customer for this training solution.

ITPS and Honeywell both recognize that effective flight test training increases productivity, mitigates flight test safety risk, and assists in the retention of highly skilled flight test professionals. By drastically reducing time away from the student’s workplace, the hybrid flight test training model aims to offer a flexible, affordable and highly effective solution for professional test pilot and flight test engineer development.

Honeywell’s Flight Test team will enroll the first two candidates in the inaugural course this fall. The Hybrid Flight Test course will take approximately 18 months to complete.

The new ITPS program is designed to strengthen flight test planning, conduct and reporting skills through a combination of instructor-led online theory courses and hands-on exercises using the school’s aircraft and simulator fleet. The program will culminate in a capstone project for the course participants at the customer’s flight test center.
