The Performance Vector program allows eligible policyholders to choose annually from a range of valuable safety enhancing programs and services delivered by the industry’s leading providers. Through this partnership with APS, USAIG is helping to provide its policyholders with critical life-saving skills to mitigate the risk of Loss of Control In-flight (LOC-I), aviation’s most lethal safety threat.
APS has been at the forefront of a decades-long effort, working with regulatory agencies and safety-minded aviation organizations to develop the world’s most proven and effective strategies and techniques to effectively recognize, prevent or overcome LOC-I. The APS UPRT curriculum is in strict compliance with the latest ICAO, IATA, and FAA guidance, best practices, and standards and has been proven effective in training thousands of pilots across all aviation sectors. Corporate flight departments, government agencies, the military, owner-operators, airlines and other air carriers around the globe rely on APS to arm their pilots with the necessary skills and strategies to overcome these life-threatening events. More than 30,000 pilots will participate in APS UPRT programs this year alone, including comprehensive UPRT training provided to the pilots of two of the largest major legacy US airlines.
