French term

lâcher cdb

French to English Tech/Engineering Aerospace / Aviation / Space
This comes from a manual for pilot training.

The sentence is "Ce contrôle détermine le lâcher CDB du candidat sur le plan OPS1"

I know that CDB is commandant de bord (captain) and the meaning of 'lâcher' seems to be that the quaification is issued/given but I'm not sure exactly to put it officially.

This is still the case in France.
Note from asker:
Is this still the case for multi-pilot - the reference is for private pilot's licence?
