Course description:

This course deals with the more and more stringent requirements for QA in the development of Instrument Flight Procedures. It explains the QA process as set forth in ICAO doc. 9906 vol. 5 explaining all the required steps in the process. Furthermore the course provides an exemplary IFP design report, how it is created and what it should contain to ensure that all parties involved in the QA process have a complete and understandable document. Finally the course also points out what regulators should be checking when an IFP must be approved.

Bye Stadthaus - it is time to move on

Exactly 4 years ago ANI started the cooperation with René Schudel and the Stadthaus.  In the meantime we logged 72 instruction weeks there, several dinners and lunches and even held a full shebang ICAO IFPP meeting there. With the end of the spring Semester end of June this year, this successful cooperation comes to an end. Not that we had any problems there, the opposite is the case. We had brilliant 4 years. But it is time to move on. ANI soon moves to the new and own premises right next to Interlaken West, where we will start operations in August. It will be a state of the art training location with an infrastructure that will push the learning curve. Also we overhaul the training concept and will take it to the next level. Come and see.
