Kazakh pilots and flight attendants are acquiring
practical skills in passenger evacuation in case of an aircraft emergency and
fires using new simulators that comply with international flight safety
standards. Notably, the flight training center of the national airline has been
equipped with unique facilities. During the training, flight and cabin crew are
instructed to follow recommendations for a specially simulated scenario of
various emergencies that could occur during a flight. The training program
spans a month and a half. Previously, employees of the national air carrier had
to undergo such courses abroad every three years. Now the flight training
center is ready to provide this training for national and other airlines.
«The quality of training has always been and remains high. The only
difference is that now we have our own simulators. The one behind me is
actually a former operational aircraft that was retired from service. It ceased
flying at a certain point and was converted into a simulator. We are open to
collaboration requests from airlines or other civil aviation organizations
within Kazakhstan and other countries, and we have already started receiving
them,» said Damir Turganov, senior manager of the cabin and ground
services safety training at Kazakhstan’s air carrier.
