    • Pilot's Six Month Check Ride


      Voluntary Certification

      In our effort to maintain the best standards of training and flying at Westwind Airlines, we have introduced a new and improved model for Six Monthly Checkrides which is more aligned with that of the Real World. Every six months, our airline pilot's are given the opportunity to sit a checkride to make themselves current on their favourite airplanes.


      The Checkride

      The six monthly checkride can be conducted offline or online with one of our Flight Instructors. Pilot's must login to the WWA Training Center site where you can find the relevant checkride for your category of aircraft. Every six months the checkride options are changed but they generally include scenarios such as Engine Failure, Fire, Cabin Emergency, Decompression, Gear Failure and much more. See the Training Center for current scenarios. Each aircraft is examined seperately and at the end of your checkride you will fill out the checkride completion form and email it to the Vice President of Training for approval. For online assessments please email the Vice President of Training who will arrange an instructor for you."


      The Certificate

      Although not an airline award, each pilot who completes a six monthly checkride will be added to our public list of Current Pilots available on the forum. Most importantly however you can be safe in the knowledge that you are one of the most qualified pilots on your favourite airplane at Westwind Airlines. Please remember this is NOT a mandatory training module.

      Please visit the WWA Training Center for further details.
