The type rating training provided by Air Link taught pilots to apply an incorrect landing distance factor, which reduced the safety margin when determining the required landing distance at a destination aerodrome.
Air Link's correction of the factoring taught in the C510 type rating training will increase the safety margin when calculating landing distance and is now consistent with regulations. In addition, contacting and updating past students not currently operating for Air Link or AirMed will ensure that they also have correct understanding of landing distance requirements.
Air Link corrected training material for the C510 type rating to ensure that the correct landing distance factoring was applied and taught. In addition, past students were contacted to ensure that they understand performance requirements relating to the C510.
