UPRT
Description
The UPRT (uracil phosphoribosyltransferase homolog) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome X.
Upset Prevention and Recovery Training (UPRT) is a type of training designed to help pilots prevent, identify, and recover from unusual aircraft situations. This training is mandatory for pilots seeking certain licenses and is also required as part of recurrent training for airline pilots. UPRT is designed to address the issue of loss of control in-flight, which has been a significant contributor to aviation accidents. The goal of UPRT is to improve pilot skills and decision-making in challenging situations, ultimately enhancing safety.
UPRT is also known as FUR1, UPP.
