Multi-Crew Cooperation (MCC)
Multi-Crew Cooperation (MCC)
Description
Multi-crew cooperation (MCC) is a training course that allows pilots to fly multi-crew aircraft. It is a requirement before a pilot may undertake a multi-crew aircraft type rating. It is also required for the issuance of an airline transport pilots license (ATPL) or a multi-crew pilot license (MPL).
In the European Union and United Kingdom, MCC courses are regulated under Part-FCL 735. A longer course, the Airline Pilot Standards (APS MCC) course, is also available. This covers additional material including swept wing aircraft.
A typical MCC course covers the following subjects:
- Communication, leadership and team working skills
- Workload management
- Problem solving and decision making
- Situation awareness
- Monitoring and cross-checking
- Task sharing
- Use of checklists
- Briefings
- Flight management
- Systems normal operations
- Systems abnormal and emergency operations
- Environment, weather and ATC
