Subject: Last Week's CATC Conference
>
>Good Afternoon CRMers -
>
>Last week I attended the Civil Aviation Training Conference (CATC) held
>in Dallas. Thought I might file a quick report on my impressions.
>
>This conference was organized by the National Training Systems
>Association (http://www.trainingsystems.org/) who also do the ITEC
>conference, and was sponsored by American Airlines. It was held at the
>Hyatt hotel at DFW Airport. I estimate that about 125 people attended.
>In addition to presentations, there was also an exhibit area. Most
>exhibits were by training equipment manufacturers.
>
>The presentations covered a wide range of industry representatives
>including FAA, NTSB, major and regional airline training departments,
>third party training centers, international carriers, and training
>equipment manufacturers. Gary Grubbs gave a nice presentation on CRM,
>while many others focused on AQP, simulation, ab initio training and
>other aspects of the industry. Proceedings were distributed at the
>meeting.
>
>One of the refreshing aspects of this meeting was that the presenters
>and audience were a little different than the ones you get at the
>ATA-sponsored events, so I got to make some new connections. I look
>forward to next year's conference.
>
>Best regards,
>Neil Krey
