Student proficiencies towards the end
• Having a good proficiency enough to sit online on EKBI_TWR on a day of light traffic, with no VFR and no challenging pilots or
situations.
• Phraseology and management needs not be perfect, but a clear progression should be visible to take a leap at next session.
• Demonstrate separating flights on taxiways, pushback and during take-off/landing. A logical thought process of how not to collide
EKBI – Session 2
