Airbus 320 Type Rating
comprehensive training program for pilots to operate the Airbus A320 aircraft. It covers essential topics such as aircraft systems, flight management, cockpit procedures, performance calculations, and safety protocols. The course also includes Multi-Crew Cooperation (MCC) and Jet Orientation Course (JOC)
Pursuing an A320 Type Rating is an excellent step to boost your career prospects and gain an edge in the competitive airline pilot job market. The Airbus A320 dominates the Indian skies, serving as the preferred aircraft for most airlines operating in the country. Globally, the Airbus A320 surpassed its closest rival, the Boeing 737, in October 2019, becoming the best-selling single-aisle commercial airliner. With over 8,500 aircraft currently in service and more than 6,000 on firm order, its popularity continues to grow. In India alone, airlines collectively receive one new Airbus aircraft every week, making the A320 Type Rating a compelling and strategic choice for aspiring pilots.
We offer A320 Type Rating training in compliance with DGCA India regulations. The program includes both MCC (Multi-Crew Cooperation) and JOC (Jet Orientation Course).
MCC – Multi-Crew Cooperation Course
The Multi-Crew Cooperation (MCC) Course is essential for every commercial airline pilot to master teamwork in a multi-crew environment. Pilots must understand their roles during various phases of flight, whether executing normal procedures or managing abnormal and emergency situations. This course focuses on critical skills such as teamwork, decision-making, checklist usage, and mutual support while providing insights into the operational framework of airline pilots.
Training is conducted on an A320 Fixed Base Simulator, offering a realistic understanding of aircraft systems and piloting dynamics.
JOC – Jet Orientation Course
The Jet Orientation Course (JOC) is designed to ensure a smooth transition from piston-engine aircraft to jet operations. Jets have unique characteristics, and this course develops the skills, awareness, and understanding needed to handle jet engine operations proficiently.
Many airlines worldwide consider the JOC a mandatory prerequisite for their pilot selection process.
