Effective Methods of Knowledge and Skills Transfer in Aviation Training

This study aims to develop and validate an innovative methodology for knowledge and skills transfer in aviation training, focusing on preparing pilots for extreme areas with difficult climatic and geographical conditions. The "Bridging the Gap" method integrates theoretical knowledge and practical skills, addressing the limitations of traditional approaches. The research employs a comprehensive methodology, including literature analysis, empirical studies, statistical analysis, and expert evaluations. The integrated approach enhances pilots' mental models of flight situations, improves rapid application of theoretical knowledge in practical scenarios, and develops metacognitive skills. The study concludes that implementing the "Bridging the Gap" methodology can significantly enhance pilot training effectiveness and, consequently, flight safety in complex operational environments. This research contributes to the field by offering an adaptive, integrated training approach specifically tailored for extreme conditions
