Full Description

The term "aeroplane upset" is defined as an in-flight condition by which an aeroplane unintentionally exceeds the parameters normally experienced in normal line operations or training. An upset is generally recognized as a condition of flight during which the pitch of the aeroplane unintentionally exceeds either 25 degrees nose up or 10 degrees nose down, or a bank angle exceeding 45 degrees, or flight within the aforementioned parameters but at inapprpropriate airspeeds.

The focus of this material is to better prepare flight crew members to recognize and avoid situations that are conductive to encountering an in-flight upset, in other words, "prevention." Notwithstanding, any risk mitigation effort would be incomplete without including recovery training.
