The making of a captain:
Share to linkedinThe scope of what airline captains have to handle is wider than ever before, and the way airlines train their captains has had to expand accordingly. “Fifteen to 20 years ago, we focused on scenarios like, ‘There I was on a dark and stormy night,’ “ says Captain Mark Hoog, director of United Airlines’ captain upgrade training.
“You feel nothing but excitement when you finally get your captain bid,” says United’s Captain Hoog, “but at some point in upgrade training, you step into the simulator and instead of climbing into the right seat, you find yourself staring at the captain’s seat, and the light shining down on it, wondering am I good enough to do this, to be more than just a pilot?”...
Many airlines, including Southwest and United, also have captains meet with senior executive leadership, often the CEO or COO. Southwest’s Captain Kinnebrew explains, “We want to share our expectations, encourage our new captains, and show them that our whole team is working to support them in their new roles.”
