9.9 Retraining and Assessment of Controllers Found Not Competent
9.9.1 Requirement
A controller who has been assessed as not competent at an annual competence assessment will not have his unit endorsement renewed. He will be required to undergo a period of training under the supervision of an OJTI and be declared as competent following a successful unit endorsement examination.
9.9.2 Retraining
In cases where a controller’s ability to safely exercise the privileges of a particular rating and rating endorsement (if any) is in doubt, ATSD may require the controller to be assessed for previous competence.
10 Training in Unusual Circumstances and Emergencies (TRUCE)
10.1 Objective of TRUCE Scheme
The objective of the TRUCE scheme is to ensure that staff involved in the provision of an air traffic control service are trained to recognise and handle emergency occurrences and unusual situations.
Additional guidance related to the TRUCE scheme can be found in CAP 584.
10.2 TRUCE Plan and Records Requirement Air traffic control units shall submit plans for TRUCE that are acceptable to the CAA. The plan shall require controllers to complete at least 4 hours TRUCE every 12 months and be assessed as competent to handle unusual circumstances and aircraft in emergency before being granted a unit endorsement.
Units shall review TRUCE plans periodically to ensure that they continue to meet the scheme objectives.
Air traffic control units shall maintain accurate records of training conducted in accordance with their TRUCE plans.
TRUCE records shall include details of the assessment of controllers’ performance where appropriate.
10.3 TRUCE Assessment
TRUCE assessments are assessments of a controller’s competence to handle unusual circumstances and aircraft in emergency.
Requirement
Controllers shall be assessed as having satisfactorily completed the appropriate
TRUCE and associated assessment prior to:
a) the issue of a unit endorsement; or
b) the issue of an additional unit endorsement where the TRUCE requirements are different; or
c) the renewal of a unit endorsement.
Controllers shall complete the appropriate TRUCE and associated assessment at
least once every 12 months.
A controller shall not provide an air traffic control service in a rating for which he is not competent to handle unusual circumstances and aircraft in emergency. 中国航空网 www.aero.cn 航空翻译 www.aviation.cn 本文链接地址:CAP 744 Air Traffic Controllers – Licensing(35)
