Russian civilian pilots encouraged to train for ‘worst-case scenarios’
07 February 2025
A Russian CAA regulator issued a statement encouraging local and foreign operators to train their pilots for worst-case scenarios. This means specific training should be included in simulator sessions, such as flying in heavily GPS-jammed areas, total loss of navigation systems, and hydraulic failures. The idea may be related to the heavy GPS spoofing encountered over the Russian Federation, a measure meant to combat foreign drones, and also to the recent shootdown of Flight 8243.
