The CNS/ATM resource kit designed for both self-based and class-based instruction. The kit includes:

• a practical workbook
• a DVD featuring aviation safety videos on a range of CNS/ATM topics
• electronic copies of this guide, workbook and videos.

We encourage members of the aviation community to use the kit as part of their individual professional development. Organisations are encouraged to use it to develop training packages or self-contained sessions.

Note: The information contained in this kit was correct at the time of publishing but has not been updated since the flight operations rules commenced in December 2021. It includes references to repealed regulations.
