Nashua, NH – October, 29, 2020 – The ​Every Pilot In Control UPRT Solution Standard​TM​ (EPIC-S2​TM​) encompasses the key factors that have proven to be critical in successful Upset Prevention and Recovery Training (UPRT) implementation. Adoption of this new UPRT standard provides defined industry best practices and results insubstantially reducing the risk of Loss of Control In-flight (LOC-I) for graduating pilots.

Utilizing well accepted principles for effective flight training along with methodologies specific to addressing aerodynamic and human factors issues unique to the upset domain, the EPIC-S2​TM​ UPRT standard answers the need for specifications pinpointing UPRT effectiveness. These self-reinforcing critical factors combine to produce robust training which provides pilots with the resilience they need in time-critical emergency upset situations.

“WYVERN has always been a leader in the development of innovative risk management solutions,“ said Sonnie Bates, CEO of WYVERN.“ There is a natural alignment between WYVERN safety advancement and experienced auditing capabilities, and the LOC-I mitigation that can result from UPRT conducted to this new standard for UPRT.” he added.

“Combining the world class risk management and safety advancement principles of WYVERN with the technical expertise of APS in identifying necessary components for safe and effective UPRT delivery is a real win for reducing the number one cause of fatalities in aviation, LOC-I,” said Paul BJ Ransbury, CEO of APS.

EPIC-S2​TM​ can be applied to both providers of UPRT that meet the quantifiable standards identified as well as flight departments whose pilots are provided with training that meets the prescribed standards. Greater acceptance of this standard can help to reduce the LOC-I accident rate worldwide.
