The Government will provide the contractor yearly CRM/TEM Topic(s) of the Year (ToY) that contain “real world” CRM/TEM topics and source material references with which the contractor will develop applicable presentations. CRM/TEM ToYs will be integrated into the contractor’s existing CRM/TEM program where appropriate; a contractor syllabus revision is not required. ToYs will include timely topics particularly regarding MAF aviation operations and relevant source material references. Source material references include USAF Safety Center and AMC Safety Reports, aviation mishaps (civilian and military), Air Force Safety Automated System (AFSAS) information, Aviation Safety Aviation Safety Action Program (ASAP) reports, Military Flight Operations Quality Assurance (MFOQA) analysis, AMC standardization/evaluation reports, FAA Advisory Circulars (AC) and Safety Alerts (SA), Line Oriented Safety Audit (LOSA) recommendations, and findings from the aviation industry. The contractor shall ensure personnel working with “Safety Privileged” information--such as AFSAS mishap reports--are appropriately trained and employ proper safeguards for the handling of Safety Privileged information. At a minimum, mishaps reviewed and analyzed during Refresher Training shall be changed annually by the contractor. CRM/TEM Core Curriculum shall focus on:

1.3.9.1. Situational Awareness. Includes knowledge and skill objectives for preventing the loss of situational awareness, skills for recognizing the loss of situational awareness, and techniques for recovering from the loss of situational awareness.

1.3.9.2. Crew Coordination/Flight Integrity. Includes knowledge and skill objectives covering the impact on aircrew performance of command authority, leadership, responsibility, assertiveness, conflict resolution, hazardous attitudes, behavioral styles, legitimate avenues of dissent, and team building.

1.3.9.3. Communication. Includes knowledge of common errors, cultural influences, and barriers (rank, age, experience, and position). Skills will encompass listening, feedback, precision, and efficiency of communication with all members and agencies (i.e., Crewmembers, Weather, ATC, Dispatch etc.).

1.3.9.4. Risk Management/Decision Making. Includes risk assessment, the risk management process, tools, breakdowns in judgment and flight discipline, problem-solving, evaluation of hazards, and control measures.

1.3.9.5. Task Management. Includes establishing priorities, overload, underload, complacency, management of automation, available resources, checklist discipline, and standard operating procedures.

1.3.9.6. Mission Planning/Debrief. Includes pre-mission analysis and planning, briefing, ongoing mission evaluation, and post mission debrief. Also, specific tools and techniques to be used on operational missions. Debriefings will include an analysis of Undesired Aircraft State occurrences and TEM techniques that either fostered effective TEM or were deficient.

Enhancements to the Pilot Monitoring (PM) role will also be discussed.

1.3.9.7. Threat and Error Management (TEM). An aviation industry-recognized best practice, TEM is a structured, proactive systems approach by building multiple layers of defenses. TEM is intuitively, logically, and flexibly designed to identify, prevent, and mitigate threats and/or trap or mitigate inevitable human errors to avoid Undesired Aircraft States (UAS) and potential mishaps. Effective Flight Path Management (FPM), Information Automation (IA) management, and the importance of TEM tools such as the roles of the Pilot Flying (PF) & Pilot Monitoring (PM) and “Verbalize, Verify, and Monitor” (VVM) in mitigating threats and trapping errors cannot be over-emphasized.

1.3.9.7.1. Threats. Defined as events or errors that occur outside the influence of the flight crew, threats increase operational complexity and must be managed to maintain safety margins. All threats have the potential to negatively affect flight operations.

1.3.9.7.2. Errors. Errors are flight crew actions or inactions that lead to a deviation from crew or organization intentions or expectations, reduce safety margins, and increase the probability of adverse operational events on the ground or in flight. Unmanaged or mismanaged errors can lead to an Undesired Aircraft State.

1.3.9.7.3. Undesired Aircraft States (UAS). Operational conditions where an unintended situation results in a reduction in margins of safety. A UAS is a result of ineffective Threat and Error Management and may lead to a mishap.

1.3.9.8. Flight Path Management (FPM). FPM is the planning, execution, and monitoring of the aircraft’s guidance, trajectory, and energy state. FPM applies anytime the aircraft is in motion—in flight or on the ground. All cockpit crewmembers must ensure that effective FPM is a primary and shared responsibility during all phases of flight. Flight Path Management is comprised of three aspects:

1.3.9.8.1. Planning. The process to development a thorough understanding of the aircraft’s desired flight path. Planning is dynamic and includes changes driven by the mission, environmental considerations, and clearances from authorities, such as ATC. Note: For the purposes of this document, a clearance is the flight path of the aircraft, as normally defined by the assigned ATC clearance. Flight deck occupants, (typically two pilots or as necessary for the safe conduct of the flight), must hear/read, understand, anticipate its impact, and comply with the clearance. Other cockpit crewmembers, who have the training, ability, and authority to do so, should assist with clearance acceptance.

1.3.9.8.2. Executing. The process through which the aircrew controls the aircraft and achieves compliance with the desired flight path.

1.3.9.8.3. Monitoring. The process through which crewmembers monitor compliance with the desired (planned) flight path. Effectively monitoring the flight path is a critical TEM task that discovers and corrects FPM errors that might lead to flight path deviations or UAS. As a primary and shared responsibility, monitoring is equally as important as controlling the aircraft. Monitoring requirements vary depending on phase of flight and on situations encountered within each phase of flight. Aircrews should anticipate flight situations or phases where they will be most vulnerable to flight path deviations (Areas of Vulnerability – AoV), and strategically manage workload and distractions to maximize monitoring during AoVs.

1.3.9.9. Mission Oriented Simulator Training (MOST). Training presented as a part of a CRM/TEM program in a realistic, operationally based simulator environment in real time.

MOST is the AF equivalent of Line Oriented Flight Training (LOFT). LOFT/MOST will provide actual time, realistic mission scenarios that demand crew coordination to safely complete the mission. LOFT/MOST scenarios may be based upon case studies presented in the classroom instruction and changed annually. An AMC Form 4031 (A001 – AD01) shall be completed and submitted for each refresher course described in paragraph 1.3.2 that includes a LOFT/MOST scenario. MOST is not applicable to Pilot Initial or Senior Officer courses.

1.3.9.10. CRM/TEM Competency. Civilian/Contract CRM/TEM facilitators and simulator instructors will maintain competency as CRM/TEM instructors and will receive recurrent CRM/TEM training annually, or as directed by AFMAN 11-2EA, Volume 1 or AFI 11- 290_AMC Supplement

1.3.9.11. Core Principles of UPRT. All UPRT training shall be in accordance with FAA AC 120-111 and shall include:

• Enhanced instructor training on the limitations of simulation.

• Comprehensive pilot academic training on aerodynamics.

• Early recognition of divergence from intended flightpath.

• Upset prevention through improvements in manual handling skills.

• Training that integrates Crew Resource Management (CRM) including progressive intervention strategies for the pilot monitoring.
