COMPASS: COMputerized Pilot Aptitude Screening System. 

 

Selecting pilots or rather screening pilot candidates which have the appropriate set of skills to become an commercial aviation pilot is a difficult and time consuming. FTO’s or Airlines often have to free-up time of experienced pilots and instructors to assess candidates suitable as commercial aviation pilots. COMPASS is a pilot selection and screening system used by airlines and FTO’s to screen and select candidate pilots for commercial aviation pilot training. Because COMPASS is a series of tests taken on a normal PC, the results are not open to interpretation, all candidates are tested on the same set of skills required to become an airline pilot. The results of the COMPASS pilot aptitude test clearly show in which skills the pilot candidate is proficient or not.

COMPASS: More than 21.000 pilots screened using COMPASS. Airlines and FTO’s around the world rely on COMPASS for pilot selection.
