As part of this work package, you will have to design a preparation and training programme for the crews of a vehicle dedicated to commercial suborbital flights (targets 1 and 2) or space flights (target 3). The main objective is to ensure that the crews are ready to accompany passengers with diverse profiles in terms of travel objectives and skills. It is imperative that crews provide a quality service, guaranteeing both the comfort and safety of passengers throughout the flight.

After choosing the vehicle (either vehicle 1 for local suborbital flights, vehicle 2 for high-speed long-range suborbital transportation or vehicle 3 servicing LEO)on which the preparation and training programme will be applied:

• You will design a comprehensive training programme for crew members, including training in procedures for managing contingency situations such as fire propagation or other critical in-flight incidents and training in communications with ground crews,
• You will draw up a list of the facilities and equipment required for crew training, including simulators, safety devices and any other relevant equipment,
• You will estimate the duration of the training programme, including the various steps and assessments. You will draw up a detailed timetable for the different phases of training.

Your work should not be a copy of what ESA, NASA or other organisations are proposing, but you can take inspiration from them.
