Abstract

Verbatim from Embry-Riddle Scholarly Commons. Not paraphrased, not summarized.

This national research study examined the effects operationally limited environments have on primary flight training at the collegiate level. The study utilized the operationally limited environment of the COVID-19 pandemic to quantify the amount of training that was done pre, post, and during the pandemic to evaluate the effects operationally limited environments have on primary flight training at the collegiate level to help aid in planning for future possible disturbances and successful self mitigation measures. Data was collected from 10 FAA Part 141 collegiate flight schools that offered a four-year bachelors degree and operated their own fleet of aircraft were analyzed for the findings and conclusions in this study
