Stewart warns that certain kinds of air crashes will persist if more attention is not given to old-fashioned hand-flying skills. The FAA's newly updated requirements for pilot certification--the Airman Certification Standards--represent a renewed emphasis on aeronautical decision-making while acknowledging advancements in avionics technology. All FAA-certified pilots, including those trained by the US military, must obtain the proper FAA certificate, using the revised standards, whether flying a Cessna or an airliner. The ACS published last June provide a useful integrated method for students and instructors by eliminating irrelevancy in training and testing for private and instrument pilots flying small planes.
