Proposal for Modification of the Syllabus for Ultralight Aircraft Pilot's Training
This article proposes modifications of the basic training syllabus for ultralight aircraft pilots based on the statistical data and analysis of ultralight aircraft accidents in the Czechia and Slovakia between 2016 to 2021. The article gives an overview of the current state of ultralight aviation in both countries and its current regulations, focusing on the need for increased safety measures. The article analyses existing accident data and identifies the causes of accidents, including human factors, equipment failure and other environmental factors. Based on this analysis, training modifications are proposed to improve pilot knowledge and skills, strengthen safety procedures and protocols, and reduce the likelihood of accidents. The proposed changes include an increase in training hours and practical experience focused on emergency procedures, flight parameters, and weather conditions. The results of this study contribute to ongoing efforts to improve the safety of ultralight aviation and inform and support about policy decisions regarding training requirements and regulatory frameworks.
