My HPP Insights FAQs About
Professional Pilot Development

Structured Training
Ends in the Simulator.
Development Doesn't.

The regulatory framework tells you what good looks like. HPP tells you how to get there.

The behaviours and habits that define high performance on the flight deck are built across thousands of ordinary sectors. High Performance Pilot gives you the structure and coaching to build them deliberately.

The Gap
The ICAO framework defines what high performance looks like. It has never defined how to build it. That is what HPP does.
How HPP closes it →

Six months between simulator events is time that can be used well.

Every pilot has a training calendar. Simulator events, line checks, recurrent training — they happen, they're prepared for, and they pass. Between them, there is a significant stretch of everyday line flying where patterns of behaviour settle and habits form.

The pilots who develop fastest treat that time as an opportunity. They reflect deliberately on what they observe in themselves, identify specific behaviours to work on, and notice what changes. That kind of consistent practice — applied across multiple sectors — produces development that no single training event can replicate.

HPP gives that practice a structure.

Knowledge insights locked inside the platform

The simulator assesses performance. High Performance Pilot builds it before you get there.


A development platform built from 850+ Insights of professional flight deck knowledge.

The content inside HPP has been built from the ground up for professional line flying — not adapted from generic training material, not lifted from regulatory documents. Written specifically for the moments that matter: the approach briefing, the workload peak, the moment a non-normal occurs.

850+ knowledge insights across 12 phases of flight, 77 behaviours individually mapped across the phases at three levels of development, in-depth articles and operational event analyses. All of it verified and grounded in professional line experience.

The Coaching Algorithm

HPP uses a coaching algorithm built on the ICAO competency framework. It draws from the platform database using what you tell it about your own flying — your current challenge, your recent feedback, your blind spots, your development level. It selects relevant content, calibrates the coaching to your phase of career, and builds a plan that reflects where you actually are. The output reads like a briefing from an experienced Line Training Captain.

Built on thirty years of professional line experience.

High Performance Pilot was developed by a team with deep roots in professional aviation training. The platform is built on the same framework used in professional assessments, written at the same three levels observed in high-performing crews, and designed to be used on the line — not just in the training environment.

The content reflects what genuinely distinguishes high-performing pilots: not the hours, but the intentionality. The self-awareness. The deliberate practice of the behaviours that define professional performance in a two-crew environment.

HPP is the daily practice that makes that development visible — to you, to your colleagues, and to the people who assess you.
