COPA University currently addresses important safety-related topics in 6 Colleges:
 
Aviation Safety - Investigating accidents and incidents of TAA aircraft to draw conclusions on better handling of advanced TAA systems.
 
Advanced Avionics - Dealing with advanced cockpits and navigators - from GNS430 to IFD440, GTN650, Aspen Evolution, Sandel EHSI to integrated cockpits with Garmin 1000, Avidyne Entegra, Cirrus Perspective or Avidyne R9.
 
Flight Operations - Everything about weather, including satellite weather in the cockpit, normal, abnormal and emergency procedures, IFR procedures, pre-flight and in-flight aeronautical decision making (ADM), and the legal aspects of our flying.
 
Aircraft Technology - Everything from engines, propellers, airframes, systems, proper leaning, typical failure modes in our aircraft, to inspections and borescope interpretation.
 
Flight Simulation - in several modern procedure trainers, as well as in the Cirrus SR series full-motion simulator in Poznan, pilots train with flight instructors in critical and demanding scenarios, including those that we do not want to or are not allowed to encounter in real flight.
 
Practical Flight - this is where it all comes together, where we apply in the aircraft what was learned and practiced on the ground.
 
 
 
 
 
Competent Pilot Proficiency Program (CPPP)
The COPA Safety and Education Foundation organizes recurrent training with General Aviation ground courses and Aircraft-specific flight instruction during a weekend of socializing with like-minded owners and their partners. Many pilots choose to make CPPP a key part of their annual or biannual training.
