Pilot Peer Support
We are here for you.
As a pilot, we understand that you face stressors that are unique to your industry and lifestyle. This support programme is for those challenging moments in life when you might wish to speak to a fellow pilot and share the load.
​
This Peer Support Programme is for Pilots of CAPPSP member AOCs. It is governed to the highest professional and medical standards of confidentiality and is administered and supported by the leading specialists and independent providers in this field - the Centre for Aviation Psychology.
Using this Service
The people using this service contact us because they are experiencing a difficulty in their professional or personal lives and would value talking it through with the support of a trained peer - in confidence and independently of their employer. These difficulties, however large or small, typically include:
Life & career stresses
Relationship & family problems
Fatigue
Bereavement
Sim-check worries
Physical and/or mental health concerns
Requesting a Call
To keep things simple and secure, the service is provided over the phone. You let us know, via the Speak to a Peer page, that you would like to speak to a peer and we will put you in contact with one of our trained peers who will then arrange a mutually convenient time to talk. ​​
The initial conversation will be to understand how they can best support you - or which direction to point you in. They are supported by clinical psychologists from the Centre for Aviation Psychology.
