In Season 2 Episode 44 of Sky Commander Academy, we dig into one of the most advanced and high-stakes topics in RPAS operations: Threat and Error Management (TEM). This is the mindset and method used by professional pilots to prevent small issues from spiraling into serious incidents — and it’s now expected of you.

TEM isn’t just for exam prep — it’s for every flight, every decision, every second in the air.

You’ll learn:

  • The three pillars of TEM: Anticipate, Recognize, and Recover

  • The difference between latent threatsactive threats, and pilot errors

  • Real-world examples of how small mistakes escalated into major drone losses

  • Techniques to manage workload, communication, and human limitations under pressure

  • What your Flight Reviewer is watching for when it comes to threat awareness and response

If you want to fly like a pro and turn stress into strategy, this episode gives you the mental framework elite pilots use to stay sharp, safe, and certified.
