Flying the filed flight plan instead of the issued clearance remains a leading cause of lateral deviations and gross navigation errors (GNEs). This issue is most common when a revised clearance with a route amendment is issued. The most effective mitigation strategy is implementing robust standard operating procedures (SOPs) that incorporate dual independent verification when accepting, loading, and updating clearances in the flight management system (FMS), as well as ensuring the Master Operational Flight Plan and plotting chart reflect the latest changes.
Our training focuses on the application side of international Flight Operations while surpassing the standards as set forth by the FAA.
I am almost through the online course and this is the best that I have seen!!
