Figure 92: Type of <strong>aircraft</strong> <strong>and</strong> transition training<br />
3.9.3 Effect of pilot type, operation type <strong>and</strong> flying activity<br />
Transition training by type of flying hours<br />
Table 7 records transition training by the sector where pilots accumulated the<br />
majority of flying hours. This shows a statistically significant association between<br />
the type of flying <strong>and</strong> transition training.<br />

Fifty-nine of 349 pilots accumulated the majority of their hours outside of private<br />
flying. Table 8 shows that people who accrued the majority of their flying hours in<br />
private flying were 1.8 times more likely to undertake transition training. This<br />
association is statistically significant.<br />
