Title: Air Carrier Training Programs 
Abstract: This rulemaking revises and upgrades parts 121 and 135 training, checking, certification, and qualification requirements, including cockpit resource management. In addition, commuter air carriers conducting part 135 commuter operations in airplanes that require two pilots would be required to meet the proposed upgraded part 121 requirements. This rule is in response to recommendations of the joint Government/Industry Task Force on Flight Crew Performance and is significant because of its safety implications.
