This course can be deployed as a combined ab-initio & refresher training. The role of the aircraft marshaller is an important element of managing aircraft on the ramp. The aircraft marshaller provides the essential visual link to assist the flight crew in positioning the aircraft correctly and in ensuring airside safety. Yet, very few airports in Africa have an opportunity to access practical training - until now.

The course raises awareness of all organisational elements of ramp safety and considers the various challenges which marshallers face in their daily jobs. It follows the training as provided at the EASA approved airport where our instructors work and train.
