Flight Training Overview 

14 CFR PART 121 APPENDIX H TRAINING INCLUDES 

1. PIC/SIC Initial, PIC/SIC Transition, Upgrade, Recency of Experience (requalification) and Recurrent Training. 

2. ExpressJet utilizes Level C and D simulators, owned and maintained by the company as well as simulator 

vendors. Training devices may be used as indicated in specific training curriculums. 

3. All ExpressJet Instructors, Check Airmen and APD’s maintain currency as described in the Instructor section 

of this program. 

4. Each Instructor and Check Airman receives at least four hours of Recurrent Training. 

5. Approved LOFT profiles are conducted to facilitate transition to line flying. 

6. In accordance with the “Fair Treatment for Experienced Pilots Act”, instructors and Check Airmen will monitor 

all pilots over age 60 to ensure continued acceptable levels of pilot skill and judgment. 

NOTE: The flight training elements are required for both pilots unless otherwise noted. 

Pictorial displays and descriptions of normal, abnormal, and emergency maneuvers and procedures are located in 

the Operating Manual. 

INOPERATIVE SIMULATOR COMPONENTS 

Aircraft simulators should be fully functional for all training and checking events. However, if simulator control 

loading, motion or visuals systems become inoperative during a training or checking event; the following flight 

training tables provide guidance on which flight training elements may be conducted with these inoperative 

simulator components. This guidance is to allow the continuation of a flight training or checking session when 

one of the simulator components becomes inoperative during the course of the simulator session.
