Airbus Cross Crew Qualification (CCQ)
Structured CCQ programs enabling Airbus pilots to transition between fleet types smoothly while maintaining proficiency and meeting all EASA training and safety standards.

Your Gateway Between Airbus Flight Decks
At Sky Pro Aviation, we offer certified Cross Crew Qualification (CCQ) courses designed for Airbus pilots seeking to transition between aircraft types within the Airbus fly-by-wire family. These programs enable a fast and efficient type conversion while maintaining full compliance with EASA Part-FCL and Airbus ODR (Operational Differences Requirements) Tables.
We currently deliver CCQ training for Airbus A320, A330, and A350 across multiple international locations, including the UAE, Turkey, France, Germany, the UK, Netherlands, Egypt, and more.
What Is CCQ?
Cross Crew Qualification (CCQ) is a type of Airbus-approved training that allows current Airbus pilots to qualify on another Airbus fly-by-wire aircraft by focusing only on the differences between aircraft types. This structured program significantly shortens training time while maintaining full safety and proficiency standards.
Sky Pro’s CCQ courses are designed to support Mixed Fleet Flying (MFF) operations and transition between:
- Airbus A320 ↔ A330
- Airbus A320 ↔ A350
- Airbus A330 ↔ A350
Prerequisites
To be eligible for the CCQ course, the pilot must:
- Hold a valid type rating and current LPC on the base Airbus aircraft
- Have a minimum of 3 months and 150 flight hours on the base aircraft
- Possess strong systems knowledge of the base aircraft
If the pilot’s LPC is valid but not current, eligibility for CCQ may still apply with refresher training.

Course Duration (Typical)
- A320 to A330 CCQ – 7 days (3 Ground + 4 Sim/Test)
- A320 to A350 CCQ – 8 days (4 Ground + 4 Sim/Test)
- A330 to A350 (Differences) – 8 days (4 Ground + 4 Sim/Test)
Course Phases


-
1
Ground Phase
The training starts with a comprehensive Ground Phase via Computer-Based Training (CBT), focusing on system differences and ending with a CBT-based knowledge test to ensure solid understanding of all required components.
-
2
Simulator Phase
Next, the Simulator Phase includes the required Full Flight Simulator (FFS) sessions, aligned with Airbus ODR Tables, emphasizing handling differences and procedural adaptation to meet operational standards.
-
3
Flight Phase
For the Flight Phase, pilots undergo Base Training or Zero Flight Time Training (ZFTT), where applicable, conducted on a Level D FFS to ensure realistic and high-quality instruction.
-
4
Skill Test (LST)
Finally, the Skill Test is carried out by a certified Type Rating Examiner (TRE). Any failed items may be retested; however, two consecutive failed attempts will require completing the full skill test again.
