An AF Form 4031 shall be completed and submitted for each refresher course described in paragraph 1.3.3. and 1.3.4.
1.3.10. Crew Resource Management core curriculum shall focus on:
1.3.10.1 Mission Analysis. Includes pre-mission analysis and planning, briefing, ongoing mission evaluation, and post mission debrief. Clearly define mission overview/goals and existing/potential threats or anticipated errors that might adversely affect mission success, along with relevant threat/error mitigation strategies. Mission analysis instructions shall include specific TEM tools and techniques throughout the mission/flight. Debrief instruction shall include aircrew responses and outcomes to threats and errors, giving emphasis to any US that may have occurred.
1.3.10.2. Situational Awareness (SA). Includes knowledge and skill objectives for identifying errors, preventing the loss of SA, recognizing the loss of SA, and techniques for recovering from the loss of SA. Recognize the need for action and verbalize/act on unexpected events.
1.3.10.3. Communication. Includes knowledge of common errors, cultural influences, and barriers (rank, age, experience, position, etc.). Skills shall encompass listening, feedback, precision and efficiency of communication with all members and agencies (crewmembers, wingmen, weather, air traffic control, intelligence, etc.). Use precise terminology, acknowledge all communications, and ask questions/provide clarification as applicable.
1.3.10.4. Risk Management/Decision Making. Includes risk assessment, the RM processes (deliberate, real time RM)/tools, breakdowns in judgment and flight discipline, problem-solving, evaluation of hazards, and control measures. Identify contingencies and alternatives, gather all available decision data, and clearly state decisions.
1.3.10.5. Crew/Flight Coordination. Includes the knowledge and skills required within (i.e., internal) and outside the crew/flight members (i.e., external) for mission coordination, flight/mission integrity contracts, team-building, leadership, command authority, responsibility, behavioral styles, assertiveness, persistence, conflict resolution, hazardous attitudes, legitimate avenues/methods of dissent, and solution driven statements. Adapt as situational demands require, focus attention on task, and ask for inputs.
1.3.10.6. Task Management . Includes establishing priorities, using available resources to manage workload, overload/under-load, complacency, management of automation, checklist discipline, standard operating procedure (SOP), the verbalization of concerns relating to tasks, and the proposal of solutions to known task issues.
1.3.11. Threat and Error Management core curriculum shall focus on:
1.3.11.1. Threat Identification and Mitigation. Effective threat identification and mitigation strategies enhance SA and reduce the potential for crewmember error. The appropriate response to a threat is: Identify and Prepare. The earlier threats are identified (both anticipated and unanticipated), the more quickly and effectively they can be managed. Threats not properly identified, or identified but not effectively mitigated, may result in a degradation of safe operations. Effective threat mitigation strategies include: persistently briefing known and anticipated threats along with expected actions, evaluating and confirming current and expected tasks and/or flight progress, effective wingman duties, and adhering to SOP.
1.3.11.2. Error Recognition and Mitigation. Effective error management addresses the negative consequences of human errors, either made by oneself or by another flight/crewmember. Anticipate errors based on task complexity and circumstance. The earlier an error is identified, the more quickly it can be repaired. Effective strategies for error management include: anticipation of errors (e.g., as discussed during mission planning), maintaining awareness of aircraft status and flight/crew actions, appropriate task prioritization, and confirmation of the appropriately selected automation level for the situation. Effective error-countermeasures include continuous employment of flight path management (FPM) concepts, effective pilot monitoring (PM) and crewmember monitoring (CM), and communication/ coordination techniques such as verbalize, verify, and monitor (VVM).
1.3.11.3. Undesired State (US). A US is a safety- or mission-compromised aircraft state (position, altitude, condition, configuration, or mission crew events/performance) resulting from ineffective CRM/TEM. The appropriate response to a US is: Identify and Recover. Once the US has been identified, aircrews must take immediate corrective action—this action will likely include a combination of CRM, TEM, and technical skills. A US from which a crew does not immediately recover may lead to an incident, accident, mishap, or mission failure.
1.3.12. Mission Oriented Simulator Training (MOST). The contractor shall provide the training as a part of a CRM/TEM program in a realistic, operationally based simulator environment in real time. Mission Oriented Simulator Training is the AF equivalent of Line Oriented Flight Training (LOFT). Line Oriented Flight Training/Mission Oriented Simulator Training shall provide actual time, realistic mission scenarios that demand crew coordination to safely complete the mission. Line Oriented Flight Training/Mission Oriented Simulator Training scenarios may be based upon case studies presented in the classroom instruction and changed annually. An AF Form 4031 shall be completed and submitted for each refresher course described in paragraph 1.3.2 that includes a LOFT/MOST scenario.
1.3.13. Training Certificate. If requested, a Certificate of Training in contractor format shall be provided to students by the contractor upon course completion.
1.3.14. Course Critique. Upon completion of training, the contractor shall provide each student with a copy of OSA/EA Form, Student Course Critique. Students shall be afforded time to complete the critique in private and return it to their instructor in a sealed envelope for review by the contractor program manager. The contractor shall forward a completed copy of the course critique with the invoice.
