The RVSM program prepares flight crews for the Reduced Vertical Separation Minima (RVSM) operations. It covers all the essential topics that need to be understood by pilots operating in RVSM airspace in Europe, North Atlantic MNPS (NAT), US Domestic and Pacific.
The course consists of two lessons: Lesson 1 explains the basic idea of RVSM. Lesson 2 a, b, c and d covers the information related to the specific airspace region.
