The competition is centered on the specific requirements of the "Competency Based Training Assessment (CBTA)" put forward by the Civil Aviation Flight University of China to deepen the flight training reform, focusing on the basic piloting skills at the initial flight training stage, and using the C172 flight training device (FTD) to carry out the flight skills competition. The successful holding of the competition has achieved the effect of promoting training through competition, stimulated the flight cadets' passion for the pilot profession, and enhanced the initial flight training institution's emphasis on the training of basic flying skills.
