ETOPS Online Training - Performance Standards for Extended-Range Twin-Engine Operations

ETOPS - Performance Standards for Extended-Range Twin-Engine Operations

ETOPS is an acronym for “Extended-range Twin-engine Operation Performance Standards.”

ETOPS is a regulation of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) that allows twin-engine aircraft to fly over uninhabited areas (oceans, deserts, poles) and to use air routes that include sectors more than one hour away from an alternate airport, particularly over-ocean routes.

This certification allows for long-haul flights over uninhabited areas (oceans, deserts, poles) more than 60 minutes from a diversion airport (in case of an emergency).

RECOMMENDED ADDITIONAL TRAINING

  •   EASA FH PART-145 SGS/SMS Training

    Why? PART-IS cybersecurity is integrated into a comprehensive safety management system. Understanding the PART-145 Safety Management System (SMS) enables better integration of cyber risks into the overall safety management of aircraft maintenance.
    Available in French

  •    CRM Training (Crew Resource Management)

    Communication and Human Factors in Aviation
    Why?
    Cybersecurity is heavily dependent on the human factor. CRM focuses on communication and the management of human errors—skills that are essential for preventing cyber incidents related to human behavior (such as phishing and operational errors).

    Available in French

  •   LOSA Training - Operational Security Audit
    Why? LOSA enables the auditing and identification of operational vulnerabilities. These auditing skills can be applied to identifying cybersecurity vulnerabilities in day-to-day operations.
    Available in English
  •    EASA PART CAMO Training - Continuing Airworthiness Maintenance and Management Program

    Why? Continuing airworthiness now includes cybersecurity aspects due to connected avionics systems. Understanding CAMO helps integrate cybersecurity into continuing airworthiness management.
    Available in English

  •   IATA DGR Training – Function 7.7 Flight Crew - IATA DGR for the flight crew

    Why ? Computer systems manage the declaration and tracking of dangerous goods. A cyberattack on these systems poses major risks to aviation safety and regulatory compliance.
    Available in French

  •    MMEL & MEL Training - Aviation Risk Management

    Why? MEL electronic management systems are potential targets for cyberattacks. Understanding the MEL makes it possible to assess the cyber impact on the minimum equipment required for flight.
