Helicopter Underwater Emergency Training
( HUET )
Outlines
Overall, the goal of this course will prepare aircrew to cope with the hazards that may be encountered before, during, and immediately after a helicopter ditching at sea, wherein aircrew will be supplied with a compressed air emergency breathing system (CA-EBS) during helicopter travel.
Aims
The aim of this course is to provide aircrew with the skills necessary to coordinate the evacuation and egress from a ditched helicopter.
Objectives
Prepare learners that intend to travel by helicopter by providing specific training in pre-flight and in-flight requirements and to equip learners with the basic emergency response knowledge and skills required in the event of a helicopter emergency. The learners will be able to demonstrate, in a simulated environment, that they can use the safety equipment, and follow procedures in preparing for, and during helicopter emergencies – with particular focus on escaping from a helicopter following ditching.
Pre-Requisites
