Aviation Performance Solutions Launched Gulfstream-Specific UPRT Program

Arizona, USA – Aviation Performance Solutions (APS), an Upset Prevention and Recovery Training (UPRT) provider based in Mesa, Arizona, launched a Gulfstream-specific UPRT program aimed at addressing Loss of Control In-flight (LOC-I), the leading cause of fatal aviation accidents worldwide. The launch extended APS's pattern of aircraft-type-specific UPRT development, following its 2025 fleet expansion and 2026 growth agenda, positioning the company to capture demand from corporate and business aviation flight departments operating Gulfstream types specifically.

• APS's Gulfstream UPRT program pricing started at $4,795, scaling up to comprehensive integrated simulator and on-aircraft training packages.
• The program covered wake turbulence encounters, high-altitude manual handling, approach and go-around loss-of-control risks, and other upset scenarios specific to Gulfstream operations.
• AFM previously reported that APS expanded its UPRT training fleet with a third SIAI-Marchetti S211 sweptwing jet in February 2025 and outlined a 2026 growth agenda centered on its EPIC-S2 training standard and participation in UPRTA International.

• "The closer training reflects the aircraft pilots actually fly, the more meaningful the learning becomes," said Paul "BJ" Ransbury, CEO of APS.
• "Our Gulfstream UPRT Program helps pilots develop practical upset prevention and recovery skills in the context of the operational challenges they face every day," said Paul "BJ" Ransbury, CEO of APS.
