Welcome to this pilot refresher course on TCAS. We hope that the information you find here will enhance your knowledge of TCAS operations. We have put the focus of the course on how TCAS affects ATC operations and pilot actions.
We have also included a number of videos that show operational examples of TCAS situations and how they were resolved. To give the pilot perspective of TCAS operations we have provided a number of pilot interviews. And lastly, the course shows simulations of TCAS events and how pilots respond to them.
By the end of the course you should be able to:

Explain how TCAS works

List the types of ACAS

Describe the types of TCAS alerts

Describe the pilot respond to TCAS alerts

Explain the logic and limitations of TCAS

Describe the types of interaction that may occur between ATC and TCAS

Explain the responsibilities of pilots and controllers in the event of an RA

To be issued with a certificate you will need to complete the final quiz and correctly answer 8 out of 10 questions. At the end of each subject there is a quiz that may be used optionally to test yourself on the content of the subject.

We hope that you enjoy the course. Once you’ve finished, we’d love to hear what you thought of the course, so please drop us a line or let us know through the evaluation questionnaire at the end of the course
