Part 1 development checklist and Part 2 completion

This checklist supports Part 1 development. For practical FFS completion, use the Part 2 four-level rubric and records linked below.

Progress reviews follow Details 3 and 7. Detail 10 is the final observed instructional detail. Assessment concerns the TRI candidate’s instructor performance, not the operating pilots’ flying standard.

The Part 2 rubric uses four levels: 1 — unsafe or ineffective; 2 — developing; 3 — course standard; 4 — strong course standard. Completion requires level 3 or above in every critical area, satisfactory progress reviews, completed mandatory training and records, and no unresolved safety concern or recurring weakness.

Course outcomes are course standard met, further training required, or course discontinued. Course completion does not replace the formal TRI Assessment of Competence or confer TRI privileges or EBT instructor authorisation.

A2 Distinguishes facilitator vs expert-pilot behaviours
A3 Describes EBT Evaluation phase / Manoeuvres training phase / Scenario-based training phase and coaching implications (Doc 9995 Ch 7 terms)
A4 Uses ICAO-aligned competency set accurately for instructional discussion
A5 Integrates TEM as an instructional theme (design, observe, debrief)
A6 Explains Part FCL operational-environment TEM/CRM teaching vs classroom CRMT pathway (SD29 v9.1 awareness)
A7 States Doc 9995 instructor focus areas (evidence, strengths, root causes, safety margins — 6.3.3 paraphrased)

B. Briefing & debriefing

# Criterion Evidenced (Y/N) Initials / date Notes
B1 Delivers brief stating objectives (competency standard / handling / TEM), phase structure, competencies, and intervention policy
B2 Facilitates debrief with guided discovery and clear statement of standard
B3 Balances both crew members; avoids personality labelling
B4 Produces tailored next-training outcome from evidence

C. Design & TEM

# Criterion Evidenced (Y/N) Initials / date Notes
C1 Designs or adapts a scenario with competency targets and deliberate threats
C2 Shows tailor-up / tailor-down logic without leaving approved objectives
C3 Avoids gotcha / firehose design faults
C4 Integrates CRM/TEM training into FSTD delivery (not only debrief discussion)

D. Observation, notes & judgement

# Criterion Evidenced (Y/N) Initials / date Notes
D1 Observation notes factual, tagged, review-ready; strengths + root causes; technical + CRM/NTS
D2 Separates training vs assessment behaviours appropriately
D3 Makes fair further-training / progress recommendations with evidence

E. Practical FFS instructional skills

# Criterion Evidenced (Y/N) Initials / date Notes
E1 Seat craft / control transfer discipline
E2 Proportionate intervention ladder; safety prioritised
E3 IOS / freeze / reposition used to serve objectives
E4 Maintains instructional SA (aircraft + learner + plan)
E5 Matches coaching intensity to declared EBT phase
E6 Facilitates self-analysis; role-models CRM; assesses non-technical performance fairly with technical

F. Attitude & professional conduct

# Criterion Evidenced (Y/N) Initials / date Notes
F1 Punctual, prepared, respectful, confidential
F2 Receptive to tutor feedback; reflective practice completed
F3 No integrity concerns (records, standards, fairness)
