Windshear training at United Airlines has evolved over the last 3 years from a demonstration of simulator wind models constructed from past accidents to a completely integrated training program which combines the essential elements of windshear recognition, avoidance, precautions, and recovery technique. Both the safety strategy and the development phases are discussed. Particular emphasis is placed on the human engineering aspects of windshear and on crew coordination.
